On Day 2 of the Salkantay Trek to Machu Picchu, ‪@NickiPostsTravelStuff‬ and I walked 5 hours uphill to reach the trail's highest point, the Salkantay Pass. It wasn't without its challenges! This is Nicki's edit of our day. To watch mine, head to / nickipoststravelstuff

On Day 1 we hiked up to Humantay Lake and it was UNREAL! kzfaq.info/get/bejne/Y7R5rKuKncW7np8.html

So many layers of clothing! But you look very prepared. Beautiful history on the Coca leaves. Way to power through the stomach issues Art!

Yah, really need those layers the first night, especially! Then you shed them as the day goes along. I had never taken an anti-diarrhea pill (although I sure could've used one other times) and it's quite impressive. Stops right away. Then you just have to wait for it to come back. hahaha. Thanks for watching guys!

It was a big one but in the end, I think Day 3 was harder because of all the blisters! Poopy time was glorious tho, no doubt! Yah, it's been a blast living this double KZfaq life!

Loving these vlogs! I'd like to say brings back a lot of memories but honestly the weather was so bad the scenery looks completely different watching these 😂 "and Gringo is... in the nation", that bit got me 😂 I definitely remember it being such a slog up there in the snow but you guys made it look easy. Great job! ... and there's the weather I remember! 😂 that I remember: the scenery change! Awesome stuff guys, great vid 👏

I'm not sure if you have Machu Picchu vids but I'mm gonna investigate! hahaha. You did it with snow? My New Balances would NOT have gotten through that hahaha. I quite enjoyed the foggy, drizzly weather and how it was changing all the time. Thanks for checking it out, Loz! :-)

@@GringoNation pre-vlogging days for me! Will have to see if I can dig out an old photo though!

Great video and cinematography. What month did you do the trek? Trying to plan for weather, some videos look sunny and warm, others with some rain and colder. We are thinking to go in mid July.

Hey Larry! Thanks so much for watching the video and leaving a kind comment. We did it in April. The first night was extremely cold but it only got warmer as we went along. There are videos for each of the days, if you'd like to investigate further. Thanks again!
