Cajón del Maipo, sector El Toyo, visitando el Punta Horizonte.

Sin mucha novedad.. detenida en el tiempo, pareciera descansar luego de un agitado día de ir y venir de trenes y pasajeros..

Los Andes, V Región

when you are at 3,000 meters above sea level, you start feeling the altitude. oxygen is much lower than in the valley. This amazing landscape is peaceful, but also very dangerous. Frost bite, hypothermia, altitude sickness, etc... all part of the risk of visiting this incredible place. We camped here over night, in late spring, and we did not expect the temps to drop -15 degrees C. But, we survived :D!

Caminhada da Argentina ao Chile pelos Andes em setembro de 2014.

We crossed the Andes by bus travelling from Buenos Aires to Santiago de Chile. I think the road in this image gives a good indication of how long this section of the trip took!

 

The Andes are the world's longest continental mountain range. It is a continuous chain of highland along the western coast of South America. The range is over 7,000 km (4,300 mi) long, 200 km (120 mi) to 700 km (430 mi) wide (widest between 18° to 20°S latitude), and of an average height of about 4,000 m (13,000 ft).

Over its length the Andean range is at several locations split into several ranges, often two great ranges, named Cordillera Oriental and the Cordillera Occidental, often separated by an intermediate depression. The Andes mountains extend over seven countries: Argentina, Bolivia, Chile, Colombia, Ecuador, Peru, and Venezuela, some of which are known as Andean States.

The Andes mountain range is the highest mountain range outside Asia. The highest peak, Aconcagua, rises to 6,962 m (22,841 ft) above sea level. The summit of Mount Chimborazo in the Ecuadorean Andes is the point on the Earth's surface most distant from its center, because of the equatorial bulge.

Y como me lo promentí, conocí el pueblo de Andes, donde nació el profesor de mi tío, el que tantos poemas dejó, el que creó el nadaismo, el que le dijo a Colombia que todo estaba mal, el primero de esos grandes.

 

"No pasa nada, mi amor. Sobre la terraza vuela un helicóptero, pero no estoy seguro. Puede ser una mosca. Sólo el reloj me habla de este minuto de la eternidad en que tu párpado se cierra y la tierra desaparece. Sucedía cuando te besaba y éramos felices. Tal vez ahora seas feliz en otra parte, sin mí. ¿O eres infeliz? Entonces, ¿qué hacer para seguir viviendo?"

 

Me encontré con una Biblioteca, y con unos artistas buscando hacer un homenaje real, pues su tumba no tiene nada, ni sus restos según muchos dicen. El pueblo huele a café con hierba.

 

Si le interesa apoyar a los artistas, me cuenta y yo le paso el dato.

 

Gracias,

Sobrevolando los Andes
