LAST DAY IN ALTITUDE : CAMPING IN THE FOG ! 

We have left the heat of Cochabamba for the coolness of the mountains of Chapare. Again a little variation in heights for Serge. He’s run up to 11513 ft (3500m), before finding hills again. Serge finishes under the rain, the fog and the cold. We are all freezing because of the humidity coming from the lake that we overhang. We close our eyes and we can picture ourselves standing right in the middle of the Vosges.  The only thing Serge wishes for right now is to go away from these mountains as quickly as possible and  to be back on flat ground  in the heat.
