Mt. Tunari

This weekend a group of us climbed Mt. Tunari. At 16,500 ft, it wasn't the easiest day of hiking but definitely was one of the most fun.

The perfect off-road vehicle...a trufi van...that we pushed halfway up a mountain!

chocolate covered everything provided all the energy we needed along the way.

Made it!

There was an electric storm at the peak - I've never seen anything like it - you could hear the electricity, our hair stood up straight, we got shocked everytime we came near someone else, and whenever we moved, (pointing a finger for example,) the motions made noise. We didn't stay at the top for too long, since our heads kept on getting shocked!

Then it started snowing!

What better way to end the day than to jump into the freezing cold lake on top of the mountain?
