Rating: 4.0; Vote: 1
The Lascar Volcano is located in Northern Chile, very close to, and between Salar de Atacama and the borders with Bolivia and Argentina. Lascar is active volcano, with eruptions in 1993 and between 2006-2011. The best part of the climb are the stunning views in all directions, and the crater itself, with its signs of activity. The altitude of the summit is 5, 592 m/18. 346 ft. It is relatively easy to climb Lascar (or better said - to walk to the summit, because the trail head is at 4, 900m and the total elevation gain is only 700m. Still some prior adaptation to high altitude is needed. The climb can be done in about 3. 5 hours, and the descent - in 1. 5 hours. Lascar has several craters, and the summit is above the main crater rim (30 minurtes walk. There are many volcanoes in the surrounding areas. In the Laguna Leja shot (1: 01) the following volcanoes can be seen (in order they appear): Acamarachi/Pili 6, 046 m/19, 836 ft (1: 01, Aguas Calientes 5, 924 m/19, 436 ft (1: 09, Lascar 5, 592 m/18, 346 ft (1: 18. Recorded November 2013 in HD with Panasonic TM900.

Well, this stark landscape is really quite beautiful. Thanks for all the info on the elevation and the hike. This is very high altitude. I can imagine that it is a difficult place to get to, as evidenced by the dearth of visitors on what appears to be a nice day. Very well done, Milosh. Haven't heard anything by Deuter in a very long time but I know I have a little of his music in my computer somewhere. Take care.

it's gorgeous, thanks for posting. Question, when you do a panorama, is the camera on a tripod? I'm about to get my sony cam, we spoke about it, and need to get the right tripod. Also. in the balloon in Bagan, did they allow the tripod? Chile is on my list too. Thanks a lot

2: 04 Los penitentes, the penitents are named locally these peculiar ice formations resembling hands praying to sky. Very appropriate though looking at the sacrifice expended in the climbing. Breathtaking views, literally
