South America, Peru—Cordillera Blanca, Andean Museum, Huaraz

Publication Year: 1983.

Andean Museum, Huaraz. In July the first part of the Museo Andino, which I have founded, was opened on the comer of Los Sauces and Avenida Patay near the Hotel de Turistas in Huaraz. The museum will help fill in details of the Peruvian Mountain Ranges. For instance, all maps of the Cordillera Blanca are on exhibit from Antonio Raimondi’s to the latest ones. There are climbing journals from 22 countries. Already completed are exhibits on Alpamayo and Huascarán with photographs from different sides. There is a small entry fee.
