Summit of the
Chachani (on the left, elevation 6,057 metres or 19,872 feet), and Mt. Fatima (highest point), the highest of three
volcanoes above
Arequipa,
Peru. The path to reach the summit can be seen, going almost to the top of Mt. Fatima first. Because this region is extremely arid, the mountain is almost entirely devoid of
snow.
