Peru_Lares Trek and Machu Picchu_Aug2006 : My third trip to Peru,  this time with brother Leslie.  We did a three day guided trek in the Andes near Cusco, followed by a three day visit to Machu Picchu.
The Lares trek is a great alternative to the crowded Inca trail.  We met no other tourists and had great opportunities to see not only the magnificent scenery, but also a lot of the Andean indegenous life.  At Machu Picchu we climbed to the top of Wayna Picchu  (the classic, impossible looking peak above the ruins)  and also hiked up to Intipunku (the Gate of the Sun) where the Inca Trail enters Machu Picchu.

Brenta Dolomiti hiking_Sept 2003 : Six days of hiking (including easy Via Ferrata routes) in the Italian Dolomites.  My brother Leslie and I did a 4 day, 3 nights loop in the Brenta section, staying in mountain huts.  Our route included the spectacular section called Sentiero Orsi.  This parallels the fabled Via di Bochette Alta  route (which is a difficult Via Ferrata).  The Orsi is easier, but equally spectacular.
