Flashlight in the Dark • The Alpamayo Circuit (Day 8)

Tent Talk: A Backpacking Podcast ·

2026/10/03

Hey! I'd love to hear your thoughts, send me a voice note.The longest day of the trip: a walk past the Inca ruins at Ruina Pampa, a 2,000-foot climb, then a second summit with three or four false tops before the final push above 15,000 feet, the last elevation gain of the entire circuit. It ends after dark with no campsite in sight, until a park ranger's flashlight, and later his questions about their permits, leads them to a place to pitch the tent for the last time.Daily Itinerary:Day 8 of 9:

Caterpillar Valley • The Alpamayo Circuit (Day 7)

Tent Talk: A Backpacking Podcast ·

2026/09/26

Hey! I'd love to hear your thoughts, send me a voice note.Camped in the shadow of Alpamayo itself after a day defined by caterpillars scattered across the trail (inchworms and fuzzy black-and-red ones both), a long circular valley walk, and a summit made intense by fierce wind and loose, slate-like scree. The night ends with a chaotic, mid-dark tent turnaround after realizing they'd pitched it on a slope.Daily Itinerary:Day 7 of 9: Safuna / Huillca to Jancarurish🥾 7.3 mi (11.7 km) | +3,140 ft /

Hunted by Cows, Saved by Alpacas • The Alpamayo...

Tent Talk: A Backpacking Podcast ·

2026/09/19

Hey! I'd love to hear your thoughts, send me a voice note.The hardest day of the trip: a herd of bulls treats a routine pass-through as a threat and pursues the sisters off-trail across open mountain slopes, no cover, real fear. Two more passes and a 15,000-plus foot summit later, the day turns around entirely at a meadow of fifty to a hundred alpacas right at sunset.Daily Itinerary:Day 6 of 9: Wild Camp (past Jancacucho) to Safuna / Huillca🥾 7.1 mi (11.4 km) | +3,911 ft / -2,457 ft⛺️ Campsite:

The Marsh Nearly Ate My Shoe • The Alpamayo Circuit...

Tent Talk: A Backpacking Podcast ·

2026/09/12

Hey! I'd love to hear your thoughts, send me a voice note.What was supposed to be an easy seven-mile day dissolves into backcountry chaos. An impassable river forces a scramble off-trail straight up a steep hillside, a pitch-black marsh nearly swallows a shoe whole, and a runaway cow, a village woman on horseback, and a genuine riverbed chase provide the rest of the day's drama.Daily Itinerary:Day 5 of 9: Wild Camp (past Wicrococha) to Wild Camp (past Jancacucho)🥾 6.8 mi (10.9 km) | +1,726 ft /

One More Mile, Marshall • The Alpamayo Circuit (Day 4)

Tent Talk: A Backpacking Podcast ·

2026/09/05

A punishing two-and-a-half-hour climb to 15,000 feet delivers the best view of the trip so far, Mount Taulliraju front and center, plus a rock-hopping river crossing and a stampede of spooked sheep. It's also the day Haley earns her third trail name, One More Mile Marshall, for consistently underselling how much farther there is to go.Daily Itinerary:Day 4 of 9: Tuctubamba to Wild Camp (past Wicrococha)🥾 7.4 mi (11.9 km) | +1,833 ft / -2,815 ft⛺️ Campsite: Wild Camp (past Wicrococha)🗓️ Recorded:

Stars, a Fox, and a Tent-Licking Cow • The Alpamayo...

Tent Talk: A Backpacking Podcast ·

2026/08/29

After a slow, freezing morning disrupted by a curious cow licking a neighboring tent clean, an Andean fox mysteriously appears to guide the sisters up a grueling, four-and-a-half-hour climb over Punta Union Pass. New trail friends collect along the way, and the night ends with a rare, deliberate look at the stars.Daily Itinerary:Day 3 of 9: Taullipampa to Tuctubamba🥾 5 mi (8 km) | +1,975 ft / -2,008 ft⛺️ Campsite: Tuctubamba🗓️ Recorded: Saturday, May 23, 2026Tent Talk is an immersive backpacking

A Nosebleed, Coca Leaves, and a Mountain We're Still...

Tent Talk: A Backpacking Podcast ·

2026/08/22

Hit by the breathless reality of high altitude, the sisters chew traditional coca leaves to cope. A surprise nosebleed and thick, rolling rain clouds threaten to steal their first real look at Alpamayo from the mirador, and by the end neither of them is entirely sure which peak they were even looking at.Daily Itinerary:Day 2 of 9: Llamacorral to Taullipampa🥾 9.6 mi (15.4 km) | +2,808 ft / -1,467 ft⛺️ Campsite: Taullipampa🗓️ Recorded: Friday, May 22, 2026Tent Talk is an immersive backpacking

Tent Talk: A Backpacking Podcast ·

2026/08/15

Six miles and 2,700 feet of elevation gain into the circuit, Haley earns her second trail name (Dr. Dolittle) after a stray dog adopts her for the day, a herd of pack mules and a very nervous cow nearly go off a cliff, and a clogged water filter threatens to slow the whole operation down.Daily Itinerary:Day 1 of 9: Cashapampa to Llamacorral🥾 6 mi (9.7 km) | +3,028 ft / -269 ft⛺️ Campsite: Llamacorral🗓️ Recorded: Thursday, May 21, 2026Tent Talk is an immersive backpacking podcast hosted by sisters

2026/08/08

Before taking their very first step, Audrey (Mountain Goat) and Haley (GPS) face a bumpy 6 a.m. taxi ride, a baffling message relayed by a passing motorcyclist about a police report that may or may not involve them, and the sheer pre-trip nerves of a nine-day wilderness trek about to begin.The Details:Timeline: Day 0 of 9 (pre-trip)Location: Cashapampa (trailhead), ~9,800 ftRecorded: Thursday, May 21, 2026Tent Talk is an immersive backpacking podcast hosted by sisters Audrey (Mountain Goat) and
