It is not enough for her to be the highest tropical mountain range in the world, or to be home to beautiful snow-capped peaks such as Mount Huascaran and Mount Alpamayo; nor is it enough for her to be venerated by climbers from all over the planet. She wants more: she wants the Cordilllera Negra, the enormous massif opposite her.
The dream of this bride is eternal and unachievable, because they are separated by the Huaylas Pass, from where both mountain ranges can be fully appreciated at the same time. But the Cordillera Blanca is and will always be the most beautiful. The most desired.
