The Huaraz Telegraph spoke with Yvonne Antonieta Mejía Romero, locally and in the Peruvian mountaineering world better known as ´Tana´ Mejía. Also, our editor had an attention-grabbing conversation with César Portocarrero Rodríguez who shared his point of view on the importance of water in the 21st century, the possible threat of Laguna Palcacocha and his great friendship with the American paleoclimatologist and distinguished university professor at the School of Earth Sciences, Ohio State University, Dr Lonnie G. Thompson. The edition also counts with a fantastic and really fascinating reader´s contribution from a 71-year-old climber from the U.S. that ends with the intriguing question: how has the alarming aspect of global climate change affected the climbing routes on Huasarán and the other Cordillera Blanca peaks? This and much more in the August edition of The Huaraz Telegraph
