More maps and photos! (not ours though)

So, the first night we camped at Wayllabamba, which was about 3000m. After climbing over the first pass on day two, and coming down a very steep trail, we camped at a very muddy riverside base, 3700m. Day three we climbed over two passes, to descend 1000 stone steps (hard on the knees and feet!) to WiƱaywayna and a beer and lukewarm shower, for those so inclined. This camp was at 2600m. The last day started at 4am, and we hiked along a relatively level trail to the Sun Gate, where we had great views of Machu Picchu! And on down to the ruins for a tour and a well-deserved sangwiuche (sandwich).
