MACHU PICCHU

Start running - up and down stairs! The training will help with DIGTM's adventure high in the Andes Mountains with the Incas. You'll travel with archaeologists to altitudes of 22,000 feet and uncover some ice mummies. We'll brave the wilds of overgrown forests to discover a "suburb" of Machu Picchu and the wonders it still holds. You'll also retrace the steps of the American who rediscovered Machu Picchu almost 100 years ago - and have an eye-witness description of just what he found. And, that's not all! You'll discover just what the "hitching post to the sun" really was and how the ancients made mountain cliffs a great place to grow crops. You'll also be able to try your hand at making a quipu - amazing how accurate it can be. Ready for the adventure? Don't forget your hiking boots and a sturdy walking stick.
