MAPS OF THE TOUR

Hi:
I've finally gotten around to posting maps of our trip.  Here they are - you can see our route with all of the overnight stops that we made.  There are a few spots where there is no track - these are the times we rode the lunch truck or took a taxi (to get into Lima for example).

I've also added up all the cycling.  I pedaled just under 3100 kilometers and, to really make you tired, pedaled uphill for a total of about 37,000 meters (puff, puff, whew!).

This is the last post for this blog.  Hope you enjoyed it.

Ecuador - starting in Quito August 12 and crossing into Peru August 24th.  (Click on the map photo to get a slightly enlarged version).
Northern Peru - along the coast was low elevation and not too hilly.
Southern Peru - after turning east at Nasca there was lots of uphill!
