19. Region (Condoriri range in the Cordillera Real):




Das Condoriri-Gebiet ist wirklich wunderschön, und gar nicht weit weg von La Paz! Dort hab ich den Pequeno Alpamayo bestiegen, eine Traumtour! Am ersten Tag latscht man nur ans Basecamp am See (Laguna Chiar Khota). Am nächsten Tag gehts dann zuerst den Gletscher rauf bis zum Vorgipfel Tarija (Route siehe Foto 06), wo bei uns langsam die Sonne aufging. Vom Tarija-Gipfel muss man ungefähr 100 Höhenmeter in einen Sattel absteigen, von dem aus der Aufstiegsweg über den scharfen Firn- und Eisgrat bis zum Hauptgipfel startet.

Der Blick von oben ist der Hammer! Man sieht einige schöne 6000er, und Richtung Osten das Regenwald-Tiefland mit den Amazonas-Zuflüssen. Eine super Abschluss-Tour!!
 
The Condoriri area is really gorgeous, and not really far away from La Paz! I climbed the Pequeno Alpamayo there, a stunning tour! The first day, you only have to walk to the basecamp at Chiar Khota lake. The next day, you have to ascend on the glacier until the secondary peak Tarija (see photo 06 for trail), where had breakfast at sunrise. From the Tarija peak, the route descends about 100 height meters into a saddle, where the ascent to the main summit starts, on a sharp ice and firn ridge.

The view from the top is marvellous! You can see a couple of 6000-peaks, and to the east the jungle basin with the Amazon feeders. A great final tour!!
