This place was dedicated to the extraction and carving of the stones that were used for the construction of Ollantaytambo and many surrounding precincts. This place is located about 14 km from the Inca town of Ollantaytambo and has three groups of quarries: Molle Pucro, Sirkusirkuyoc (it was the largest of the three), shows the evidence of having been fully operational when the Spanish arrived in this area . And finally Cacchicata or Kantirayoq, where another type of extraction of minerals and precious stones was practiced. Visitors can observe the great work done at the time of moving the giant stones to build Ollantaytambo enclosures. We can find the stones called "Tired Stones" that were on their way to Ollantaytambo and in some parts of the city.Cachicata or Inca quarry is one of the old quarries used by the pre Inca and Inca civilizations to build the vast complexes of Ollantaytambo. It was a source of large amounts of pink granite. Cachicata quarries are 14 km from Ollantaytambo. The view of Ollantaytambo from the quarries is spectacular and during the walk you can see many large stones that remained in the middle of their long trip to the village. It was also a commercial route for the Incas. Cachicata is a small and remote town that can benefit from the occasional visit of tourists.INFORMATION OF CACHICATA TREKThe Hike to Cachicata is a great alternative to the famous Inca Trail hike. This road was built by the Incas and used for hundreds of years to access local communities and transport goods. This trail is not as well known as the Classic Inca Trail, so much less crowds and a more serene trekking experience in Peru are expected. This hiking adventure not only visits Peru's cultural past, but also explores modern Inca communities and customs. The trail takes us through isolated waterfalls, ancient terraces and exotic wildlife, while offering fantastic views of the Sacred Valley and its snowy mountains. Visit with local families and explore an active quarry. Each step brings a new look to the Inca culture.
“The Extraction”
This short film was created for the “48 Hour Film Project”, and was directed by Kimberly Scott and Chris Pichado. It’s successful completion could not have been accomplished without the help of the entire Hidden Track Films crew!
I had the privilege of being part of the team that helped complete the film from start to finish! Each person played an important part: the story development, props, lighting, shooting, audio, directing, producing, editing. All this was done within 48 Hours.
As of the posting of this blog we had just received news that our film had been selected as part of the “Best Of” awards. We wont find out the categories until this coming Tuesday!
Stay tuned for the video link! : )

The Spanish Red variety. Since its (likely) introduction by the Spanish in the 16th C. this hearty pineapple grows wild in the Philippines and while less prized for its fruit than its larger cousin the Hawaiian, the Red has longer, stronger leaves which can be processed by hand to produce piña fibre and textiles.
