Great vlogs! I did the 5 day trek in June as well but with a guide. It was a great experience. @8:20 our guide told us that those buildings were destroyed from a glacier collapsing on Salkantay in Feb 2020 causing a massive flood of the Salkantay River. Our guide was tearing up a bit talking about it because of how much harm it did to the local communities 😢
Hiya I am peruvian I hope you knew what you were getting into jejeje it’s really tough and taxing on the body those treks at high altitude….I am more a sea level creature, a desert lizard jejeje enjoy guys well done !!
We knew it was gonna be hard, but not this extreme 😵💫. Not what our sea level living butts are used to either. We would do it again in a heartbeat though!
@@JessandJoe Cool ! for next trek please climatíse a few days in Cuzco, after 40 you need 2-3 days to adjust the body to altitudes above 3000m with lots of liquids and coca tea and not eating too much, no alcohol also. First day no physical activity just rest, 2nd day you start with short walks walking slow. Sorry you had to learn the hard way, still very brave experience. Take it easy now !
I did similar trail in Peru in 92 , now I’m 58 and still remember one of my best adventures it was easy for me ( in that time I was running the triathlons ) I have a fight with my wife because I want to do it again , before I leave this world I’m die in with leukemia , but I want to feel the experience with my family this time . Love you video amigos
