Introduction
Herein you may see several pictures from my adventures. You are capable to watching different photos of rock climbing (traditional), ice climbing and other ones.

My first contact with mountains was in 1980 when my family traveled to Huaraz (Peru), then I returned in 1986 and 1988 to do my first and second conventional outdoor activities.

I was looking to find new experiences and adventures, so I registered in a mountaineering course in the Mountaineering and Rock Climbing Association , next mountaineeing have been my main passion so far.

I brought many things with me so I was not able to carry all my mountain gear. I have only my backpack, arnes, rock shoes and sleeping bag. Each second, I am ready to find new adventures and push my energy to face new challenges althought my time is scarce during the study time.

I am thankful to the POC (Purdue Outing Club)for showing my pictures in its web and climbing time.

"Who has heard the voice of the mountain will not be able to never forget it and this will call day and night to him, it will attract and finish to him devouring "
(Quien ha oído la voz de la montaña no podrá olvidarla jamás y esta le llamará día y noche, le atraerá y acabará por devorarle)
Provervio tibetano

In the the universe of montain there are people who, risking their own lives, climbed high summits and cross glaciers, in a constant fight against the forces of the nature, in which the smaller error can be fatal.These men need more than courage; they need passion"
(En el universo de la montana hay personas que, arriesgando sus propias vidas,escalan altas cumbres y atraviesan glaciares, en una lucha constante contra las fuerzas de la naturaleza, en la cual el menor error puede resultar fatal.Estos hombres necesitan mas que coraje; necesitan pasion)

Lionel Terray, french climber, decades 50's /60's from the book "Cosquistadors of Useless"
first climber who achieved several hard summits such as: Makalu (Himalayas), Chacraraju (Peru), Huantzan (Peru), Taulliraju (Peru), Veronica (Peru),Pico Soray (Peru) Fitz Roy (Argentina) , Jannu (Himalayas), Huntington (Alaska) and another ones.

A peruvian climber friend who had an accident went to say thanks a peruvian guide to help him and the mountaineering guide answered "you must not owe me anything, in the mountain all are friends without distinction of races or religion"
("no me debes nada, en la montaña todos somos amigos sin distincion de razas o religion")
