IMAGES OF PARADISE...sometimes
and to think somewhere in the world it's snowing...
If anyone wants to see a few pictures from my Ecuador trip in June and July 2002, go to this site run by one of the guys on the trip with me... sorry... I'm too lazy to scan my own pictures on!

Rincon de la Vieja, Guanacaste (the first volcano I've ever climbed!)
|
The Wasteland Atop the Volcano
|
Final Push Up The Volcano's Flank... Littered with deep gashes that are hard to climb I might add (this photo was taken during the dry season... during the rainy season everything was shrouded by clouds which gave it a much more eerie effect!)
|
|
The Summit of the Main Crater of the Volcano... yes, this is what it is really like, exept there were WAY more clouds when I climbed it in the rainy season... and yes, it was as narrow as it looks... pretty easy to fall off...
|
The Dense Cloud Forest Climb Up the First Part of the Rincon de la Vieja Trail
|
View of the Cloud Forest from the top of a Ridge... from here, the climbing gets about 1000x rougher...
