Salkantay Trail / Machu Picchu

In 2009 I randomly entered an online raffle through Tech Crunch and Zozi, a fantastic online resource for outdoor adventures, for a 2-person 7-day trek to Machu Picchu.  By some miracle, I won.  What.  

After some drama and broken bones, in May of 2011 we finally made the trip.  Below are posts from that amazing experience.

In chronological order:
