Today we cross our highest pass, Punta Cuyoc (5000m); with a steady uphill hike of 2 to 3 hours. The panoramas as in all the passes are impressive. To the southeast we see even more of the Cordillera Raura, to the north, several of the gigantic peaks of the Cordillera Huayhuash from a new perspective and the Nevado Sarapo (6127m) that appears for the first time in sight. The initial 50m of the descent is quite steep, as we advance the terrain improves until we reach a wide valley, where we stop for lunch and regain strength. Then we have a light hike to our campsite at Huanacpatay (4300m). Dinner and rest.
