Against the Wind: Humuacha to the border

Early start on the second day to the border

We left Humuacha at 1 pm -- just in time for the afternoon wind blowing off the Altiplano. It picked up speed with each hour, becoming gale-force by the final hours of the day. Hence the 7:20 am start the following day.
