Description
The Milky Way's Galactic Center above Mt Huayna Potosi (6088m / 19,975ft) in Bolivia's Cordillera Real range. The peak is one of the most popular climbs in Bolivia and by mountaineering standards a relatively non technical 6000m peak. In the middle of the image below the peak you can see the lights of climbers making their way across the lower part of the glacier towards the summit! The glow on the peak is from the lights of the city of El Alto maybe 60km away.
