  Snaps from Bolivia
In the High Mountains - Life Above 4000m

At 4000m (13,124 feet), we have the privilege of only 60% of sea level oxygen. Imagine the weird stuff that lives up there! During my 2+ months in Bolivia, a great portion of the time was up in the mountains, with respite in the slightly lower 3600m La Paz. Humans start to die slowly at a celluar level, living at 5000m, and within this band, the perils of altitude sickness take a few others down in acute manner. A gallery from base camps, high passes, and the wonderful treks across the altiplano..
