Sadly, just as Matt was doing better, another member of our group now suffered with an ankle swollen like a melon. Eventually, I talked him into using one of my hiking poles.

Terraced walls built up to the main chambers of the ruins, while the translucent fog set a wonderfully eerie tone. Now this was what I envisioned when I heard about the Inca Trail.
