La laguna de Huacachina. She traveled to 11 countries on a trip, in each country she collected dirt/soil from the ground. This is all the dirt layered in one jar. Acampar en el Nevado de Toluca. Fotografía cortesía de Juan Carlos Piña Si estas iniciando en el mundo del alpinismo o eres un campista que desea un campamento en alta montaña, el nevado de Toluca es una excelente opción.
El parque nacional Nevado de Toluca ocupa el cuarto lugar de las montañas más altas de México con una altura en promedio de 4,559 msnm. Acampar en este volcán es una experiencia increíble, pero sumamente fría –incluso más que en el Iztaccihuatl– por lo cual siempre recomiendo ir bien preparado con la ropa y el equipo necesario para pernoctar cálidamente. Aunque está prohibido acampar en el interior del cráter –Para ser precisos, las lagunas– No queda más que adaptarse y colocar la casa de campaña junto a la última “pluma” de registro y si el clima lo permite realización una caminata nocturna “Al sol y la Luna”.
Algunas recomendaciones : Considera el frío y el clima El clima en alta montaña puede cambiar de un momento a otro. Lleva suficientes provisiones Equipo básico Costo por acampar. Sotano Golondrinas.

Pulpit Rock, locally known as Preikestolen, is a curiously shaped cliff hanging over the Lysefjorden in Ryfylke, Norway.
The flat, pulpit-like top shelf is a perfect square, measuring 25 by 25 meters (82 by 82 feet), and is famous as one of the world’s most breathtaking viewing platforms. Rising 604 metres (1982 feet) above the fjord, climbing Pulpit Rock is one of the best ways to enjoy the Norwegian wilderness. In 2012, the site has increased its annual visitor count by between 150,000 and 200,000 people, making it more populated than the nearby Kjerag plateau (1,100 meters asl), also a popular hiking spot. The peculiar-shaped mountain was said to have formed 10,000 years ago during the Ice Age, when glacier waters froze at the sides of the cliff and chipped off angular blocks of rock, resulting to the rectangular shape of the cliff. Geologists also report that a deep crack lies within the plateau, which would eventually cause the rock to collapse. Featured image source: feedfloyd.com.
