Jarrett and Linda tell you about their take off from Cusco and their first day of hiking the Salkantay Trail. They describe the challenges, the sites they most remember, and the incidents that stood out to them from their first day and night out on the trail.

Their 2019 adventurous hike began at Challacancha at an altitude of 2,900 m / 9,500 ft. and ended that day in Soraypampa at  3,850 m / 12,795 ft. After first arriving in Soraypampa, the entire group took an evening stroll to the glacial Lake Humantay at 4,200 m / 13,780 ft. At the end of the day, making it to the lake required mustering extra strength and motivation. In this episode, Jarrett and Linda tell you whether it was worth it.
