We started very early in the morning from the city of La Paz. We drive to the Zongo lagoon located at the base of Huayna Potosi (4,700 m.).
After some preparations we start the approach to the Charquini mountain, the first part is to follow the route of the aqueduct, after an hour we reach the point where we must begin the ascent to the mountain on the north side.
Once finished the part of the moraine we enter the glacier, technically easy, after 2 hours of ascent in the glacier we arrive at the summit of Charquini (5,430 m.).
After a short rest and a photo session we start the return by the same route until we reach the Laguna Zongo refuge where the vehicle awaits for our return to the city of La Paz.
