The Cordillera Blanca (Spanish for “white range”) is a mountain range in Peru that is part of the larger Andes range and extends for 200km, in a northwesterly direction. It includes several peaks over 6,000m high and 722 individual glaciers. The highest mountain in Peru, Huascarán, at 6,768m high, is located there. Snowmelt from the Cordillera Blanca provides part of northern Peru with its year-round water supply.

The local scenery on the ground is as follows.
