"Alpinas Maneras"

Alpinas Maneras



Visual notes from the field

Last summer I was granted an opportunity assist in the international mountaineering continuum with the Montana Mountaineering Association on a trip to the Bolivian Andes.

Almost a year later I finally had a chance to skim through some images. Below are a few shots from the filming of a short documentary on the program.

Any comments, feedback, or cheeky jokes are most appreciated.

Enjoy,
