Huaraz before the climb

---

Spent another day trekking this time to Laguna Churup and getting prepared to start climbing Monday. Sunday was a day of rest and I hit the museum in Huaraz as well as caught some of the parade as it is the 36th Anniversary of something here. It has been a little cloudy here the last day or so and hoping that it is clear for the first summit attempt on Tuesday.
