Speaker: Our very own Gary Duke

On the Cacti Trail in Southern Peru (Peru Part II)

Gary describes a lot of tall columnar cacti that we don’t see very often, especially large ones in the wild and some of the small globular ones as well. He also has pictures of bromeliads in his talk as well as several outstanding scenic views in the Andes and a bit on their culture. Part I last year concentrated on areas above Lima, this presentation investigates areas south of Lima.  Come and see the differences with a new perspective of Peru.
