Tyler reports the Inca Trail team went back up to Machu Picchu this morning for the climb of the nearby peak of Waynapicchu. This small rocky peak is quite exciting to climb, with a great view back down toward the Citadel. Now the team is headed back down to Aquas Calientes where they will be catching the train for the ride back to Cusco.
