Living Above the Clouds
Photograph by Gordon Wiltsie
Weaving wool helps support the Saccas, one of only two families who live at Qoriwayrachina. Surviving here, an arduous hike from the nearest village, demands self-sufficiency. The families raise pigs and cows, grow potatoes and cornand now guard the remains of the high-altitude community constructed by their Andean ancestors.
