Today we have the third of four excellent climbing videos that chronicle a team of Dutch climbers who recently traveled to Peru to climb a new route along the North Face of the 5440 meter (17,847 ft) Puscanturpa Este, a difficult peak located in the Andes.
In this video the team has arrived on the mountain and are climbing up its slopes as part of their acclimatization process before taking on their main objective. This time out we get plenty of great shots of the surrounding landscapes, which are breathtaking as you would expect.
