Fast i saltöknen på högplatån
Världens största saltöken heter Salar de Uyuni och är stor som Skåne, eller som två miljoner fotbollsplaner! Att den ligger i just Bolivia beror på att Anderna här delar sig i två bergskedjor med en instängd högfjällsplatå däremellan (altiplanon).

Still #TombTuesday in #Oregon.
#Sillustani #chullpa, circular stone burial tower near #Puno, #Peru. The #Altiplano around Lake #Titicaca has many chullpas, these are the most impressive. One unique feature at the site is a stone circle. Sillustani is west of the great lake, at Lake Umayo -15.7225, -70.1567.
I lived and worked in #Azangaro, north of the lake, -14.90907, -70.19516.

Elderly villagers become film stars to put Bolivia’s climate plight in focus

Don José and Doña Luisa, both in their 70s, are the true-life love story at the heart of #Utama, which shows how drought is depopulating the highlands

Do you have a favourite mammal photo? Mine has to be this Viscacha, a high elevation member of the family Chinchillidae. We saw several in the altiplano of northern Chile and they all seemed to be sleepy, like this one enjoying the sun at > 4,000 m.

Life is slower at high elevation.
