Nevado Humantay's Jewel

Soraypampa, Cordillera Vilcabamba, Peru

Just after we reached this lake at the foot of Nevado Humantay (17,710'), the fog rolled in and threatened to keep the landscape all to itself. I climbed this ridge high above the lake (14-ish), hoping for a break in the clouds. When that break came, the lake lit up like a firefly and for about as long, yet long enough.
