Dustin and Audrey report from Peru that our Inca Trail team have now pushed over the Abra de Huarmihuanusca or Dead Woman\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s Pass (about 13,800 ft) and dropped down to the Pacamayo camp (about 11,500 ft).  This marks the first big hurdle of the Inca Trail, after a day and a half of steady climbing up from the valley of the Urabamba River.  Now, for the next couple days, the trail follows the high ridges, up and down along the way, with some spectacular hiking before dropping down to Machu Picchu.  So far, so good in Peru!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
