Huayna Picchu - Walkthrough & Hike footage

I wanted to share the experience of hiking from Machu Picchu, Peru to Huayna Picchu (also spelled Wayna Picchu), the mountain peak that sits prominently next to the archeological ruins that are visited more often. I also made a similar, longer walkthrough video of Machu Picchu itself:    • Machu Picchu - Walkthrough footage

I kept the original audio so you can appreciate the soundscape: the birds, the insects, the heavy breathing and the sound of footsteps. I made this so that my friends and family who haven't had the opportunity to visit this breathtaking place can get as close to the experience as I can possibly bring them.

This was filmed on a Canon 7D and a Canon T2i. Flying/moving shots were stabilized using a Glidecam HD-2000, a camera stabilizer rig that uses a counterbalance to stay steady (though the fierce winds often made it very difficult). I wasn't allowed to bring in more heavy-duty/professional grade equipment into the park with me, so I used a small Gorillapod instead of a tripod, etc....

The time-lapse shots were compiled from a few hundred individual raw images that I processed in Adobe Lightroom and compiled in Adobe After Effects.
