we are flying into El Alto (the highest International Airport in the world at 13,313 ft.)\u00c2\u00a0 After the team arrived and got some well-deserved rest, it was time for gear checks.\u00c2\u00a0 This team is dialed according to Adam.\u00c2\u00a0 Everyone arrived with the right gear and ready to go climbing.<\/p>\n<p>Once gear checks were done, it was time to stretch the legs and acclimatize with a city tour.\u00c2\u00a0 Walking around La Paz is a unique experience.\u00c2\u00a0 Our hotel is at 12,000 ft. and taking a simple city tour is not only fun, but also a great way to help our bodies acclimatize to the high elevation.\u00c2\u00a0 It was a beautiful day and the team enjoyed visiting the old town of La Paz, the San Francisco Cathedral and the Witches Market where you can find something that cures just about any ailment.\u00c2\u00a0 The team then jumped on the newly built tram system that has been built in La Paz.\u00c2\u00a0 Adam said this is a great addition to the City tour because it takes the team above the city where they can really take in the views.<\/p>\n<p>Tomorrow, the team will be up and out the door early, heading for the shore of Lake Titicaca and Copacabana.<\/p>\n<p>They are off to a great start!<\/p>\n<p>Greg Vernovage<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>July 23, 2018 IMG Senior Guide, Adam Clark checked in from La Paz after
