three day hike to get there and then a two day hike back. which
including a day spend in the city is a six day walk. And with how hot
it is around here six days is a lot of walking. I ended up doing it in
five with a couple of Canadian guys, Tyrel and Mike, who seemed to
think that running most of the way was fun. Which it kind of was but I
feel absolutely stuffed now and the uphill hikes where murderous with
the sun beating down. Our guide Edwin was apparently the guide who was
there when a group of tourists got kidnapped 3 years ago which was a
little disturbing. Still the army is at the site now so the likelyhood
of that happening again is pretty small now. Did the tourist thing like
all the other guys though and got a photo of myself with one of their
M16s.
