CLIMBING AT LAGUNA CONACHE
GREAT AND FUN SPORT....
A way of life
I must start by explaining that climbing in my life has evolved from being just a sport to a lifestyle. I train every day at the climbing gym and at the Vanna Coach training center to achieve my goals for the year. This time, an unexpected trip came up, which everyone was talking about. A new climbing area located in Huayhuay. They showed me photos of 30-meter walls, wow. I didn't think twice and joined a group of climbers sponsored by the NGO Vida, who provided us with all the comforts to reach our goal. On the way to the location, we could see thousands of walls with impressive potential, we were amazed. I positioned myself on a route of approximately 30 meters that didn't have an exact grade yet, some said 6c+, others 7a. All I can say is that it was an unforgettable experience, climbing long routes at an altitude of 3,500 meters above sea level with your friends. I managed to complete the entire route, until I reached the final part where the most challenging section was. An overhanging slab with small holds. Getting through all that was a mix of endurance, technique, and a lot of strength, encouraged by the shouts of everyone saying "Go, you're almost there!". This is what we train for, for moments like this where strength, technique, and a lot of mental focus come into play. It's the moment when you have to be absolutely sure of your moves, because if you hesitate, you fall, and it's a long way down. In the end, I can only say, I'm glad I made it. Those are the best moments, where you only hear your breathing and the wind fluttering your shirt. Each word of encouragement gets lost in the wind and sounds like a whisper. That's climbing, full of projects. You can never say you've done it all, there are always challenges and more challenges. People travel in search of challenges. That fuels us and gives us the strength to keep training....

Rafting in the Colca
Slacklining is a balance sport where a line is anchored between two fixed points, usually trees, and tensioned. Slacklining differs from tightrope walking in that tightrope walking involves walking on a fully tensioned metal cable, whereas slacklining involves walking on a flat nylon or polyester webbing. This sport differs from slack rope walking in that it uses flat webbing instead of a rope, as ancient tightrope walkers did. Similarly, in slacklining, no tools are used to assist in maintaining balance, such as poles or other means....
