ILLIMANI and the NAZIS. E. S. G. De La Motte
ILLIMANI AND THE NAZIS ILLIMANI AND THE NAZIS BY E. S. G. DE LA MOTTE E traveller to Bolivia from Buenos Aires spends three and a half weary days in the train with no interesting scenery to relieve the monotony of his existence. He leaves the dead flat Argentine pampas, where the horizon is like the horizon at sea, and passes almost imperceptibly to the equally flat, but much more barren, high tableland of Bolivia situated at 12,ooo ft. above sea-level. There is a difference, however. This tableland runs as a relatively narrow belt for hundreds of miles between the two main Andine ranges, and therefore has the advantage over the dreary expanses of Argentina that mountains of some sort are visible from most parts of it. Nevertheless, it is with relief that towards the end of the journey the immense ice-draped mass of Illimani is seen close at hand. The height of Illimani is still uncertain, as no triangulation has yet been made of it. All those who have climbed it, however, have. taken aneroid readings and these give results varying between 20,700 ft. ·and 22,400 ft. The probability is that the lower limit is nearer the truth, so 21 ,ooo ft. may reasonably be taken as a fair approximation. In any case, whatever the exact height may be, the mountain is a singularly striking one on account of its isolation, its massive form, and its position of domination over La Paz, which is the seat of the Bolivian Government, and from many of whose houses and streets the three heavily iced summits can be seen. -
The Cordillera Real
44 THE CORDILLERA REAL THE CORDILLERA REAL , BY EVELIO ECHEVARRIA C. HE lovely ranges of Southern Peru slope gradually down to the shores of Lake Titicaca, but this is not their end; to the east of Carabaya knot springs another ridge, which enters Bolivia and reaches its maximum elevation and magnificence in the Cordillera Real of the latter country. The name Cordillera Real was given by the Spaniards as homage to a range of royal dignity; it is located in the north-west of Bolivia, between I5° 40" and 16° 40" S., running roughly north-west to south east for an approximate length of 100 miles. This range was termed by Austrian mountaineers ' der Himalaya der N euen Welt'. Although this honour may now be disputed by several Peruvian cordilleras, it contains nevertheless mountain scenery of Himalayan grandeur; six twenty-thousanders and scores of lesser peaks are found in the region between Illampu (20,873 ft.) and Illimani (21 ,201 ft.), the mighty pillars of each extreme. The Cordillera Real is a snow and ice range; it forms a lovely back ground for that remarkable high plateau, the Bolivian Altiplano, and is in full sight nine months a year. The white peaks, the steppe-like plain and the empty, blue skies have given to this part of Bolivia a Tibetan air that many travellers have noticed; and the Mongolian features of the Aymara Indians, stolidly facing the chill winds, reinforce this opinion. General description In the north and in the south the Cordillera Real rises over deep mountain basins ; peaks like Illimani soar well above the wooded hills of Coroico and Inquisive, towns only 4,700 ft. -

Cordillera Real, 1966
CORDILLERA REAL, 1966 CORDILLERA REAL, 1966 BY D. H. CHALLIS (Four illustrations: nos. 7 4-77) T has been said that the Golden Age of Mountaineering is over in all but the Himalaya, and that the classic climber has had his day as far as treading virgin ground is concerned. Yet, in the summer of I 966, the University College, Bangor, Andean Expedition made some fifteen first ascents over eighteen thousand feet in the Cordillera Real of the Bolivian Andes and also climbed the 2 I ,ooo ft. Ancohuma, in addition to other climbs and survey work. Consisting of four young men fresh from University, our team could boast little experience of greater mountaineering, but found in the Cordillera Real of Bolivia an easily accessible range of mountains offering untouched territory and straight forward high altitude climbing in the classic tradition. First visited in the eighteen-seventies, the exploration and survey of the Cordillera Real proceeded slowly. Sir Martin Conway made a general map and some ascents in 1898 and I90o, but it was left to two Austrians, Troll and Hein, in I 928 to make a specific map of the whole range, and a surprisingly good large scale map of the north-western part, including Illampu and Ancohuma which form part of a mighty cirque of high peaks at the head of the Cooc6 valley. No further survey work of importance appears to have been done until 1962, when Reading Uni versity prepared a large scale map of the Negruni and Rumca mountains situated on the other side of the Calzada pass to the south-east of the Cooco valley.1 The Reading map included Chachacomani, Chearoco and Calzada on the main watershed the latter peak also being on Troll and Hein's large scale map. -

Mountaineering in the Andes by Jill Neate Bolivia RGS-IBG Expedition Advisory Centre, 2Nd Edition, May 1994
Taken from Mountaineering in the Andes by Jill Neate Bolivia RGS-IBG Expedition Advisory Centre, 2nd edition, May 1994 BOLIVIA The Andes of Bolivia follow the general north-south line of the main axis and are grouped into two cordilleras, Occidental and Oriental, the latter being more extensive and important, containing as it does one of South America’s finest ranges, the Cordillera Real. The Cordillera Occidental is a continuation of the Peruvian Cordillera Occidental and, for the most part, marks the boundary between Bolivia and Chile. The Cordillera Oriental enters Bolivia through the Cordillera de Apolobamba, north of Lake Titicaca, and continues in a north-west to south-east direction through the Cordillera Real, Cordillera de Quimsa Cruz, Sierra Santa Vera Cruz, and the Cordillera de Cocapata, finally stretching in a great crescent of lesser ranges some 600 kilometres in length around the Bolivian cities of Sucre and Potos¡. Both cordilleras merge into the cordilleras bordering the Puna de Atacama in the north of Chile and Argentina. Between the two Bolivian cordilleras lies the Altiplano, one of the world’s highest interior drainage basins. It is approximately 800 kilometres long by 160 kilometres wide and slopes gently from c.3800 metres at Lake Titicaca to c.3700 metres at Lake Poopo, and a little lower at the Salar de Uyuni. The Altiplano is nearly as high as the Tibetan plateau but only about one tenth the size: it is also similarly cold, dry and barren. Its eastern edge is well-defined by the sharp rise and line of the Cordillera Oriental, but the western edge is less clear-cut, with irregular hilly areas formed of volcanic debris from the coastal cordillera. -

Kasiri-Calzada Massif, Various Ascents
AAC Publications Kasiri-Calzada Massif, Various Ascents Bolivia, Cordillera Real After acclimatizing in the Condoriri region, Hugh Alexander, Nick Berry, John da Silva, Rafal Malczyk, Ken Mulvany, Lili Mulvany, Peter Yuen, and I (leader) made the five-hour drive from La Paz to a camp by a series of small lagunas on the 5,070m (GPS) col between Calzada and Kasiri. Mining activity in the area has led to marked improvements to the rough road crossing the Kasiri-Calzada pass and, with care, it is now drivable using 4WD vehicles.The Kasiri-Calzada area is rarely visited, and there is little or no detailed record of the climbing achieved from the col, although it is unlikely that any of the neighboring summits and tops have been left untrodden. Since access from both sides of the col is so much easier nowadays, we considered it prudent to hire a camp guard for the whole of our stay. We saw several mule trains crossing the pass and, surprisingly, met one vehicle close to the col a little after 4 a.m., just as we started out on one of the climbs. One can only guess which of the two was more taken aback by the encounter. Looking northwest across the Kasiri-Calzada Pass (with road) to (A) Kasiri Chico (5,542m); (B) Haucana (6,218m); (C) Ancohuma (6,427m); (D) Peak 5,731m (the summit of Kasiri is hidden); (E) Peak 5,694m; and (F) Peak 5,662m. On June 11, Ken and Lili completed a more or less direct route on the west face of Calzada (5,634m, AD+). -

Ancohuma, 6425M - Gipfel Des Weissen Wassers - Boliviens Attraktivstes Tourengebiet
Hochtouren Europa- und Fernziele / Hochtouren / In die Ferne reisen / Hochtouren & 6000er / Südamerika / Bolivien ANCOHUMA, 6425M - GIPFEL DES WEISSEN WASSERS - BOLIVIENS ATTRAKTIVSTES TOURENGEBIET Beschreibung Anspruchsvolle Hochtour, 19 Tage Übernachtung in Hotel, Lodge, Zelt Höchstgelegene Millionenstadt der Welt: La Paz Titicaca See, entspannte Akklimatisation Besteigung auf neuer Route von Südwesten Eines der schönsten Tourengebiete Boliviens Besteigung mit 2 Hochlagern Gipfelmöglichkeiten: - Ancohuma, 6425 m - Benevolo Ancopiti, 5730 m Programm „Janko Uma“ heißt in der Sprache der Aymara so viel wie „weißes Wasser“. Beim Anblick der riesigen Schnee- und Gletschermassen lässt sich leicht nachvollziehen, weswegen die lokale Bevölkerung ihm diesen Namen gegeben hat. Das Bergmassiv Illampu, bestehend aus den beiden Bergen Illampu, 6368 m, und Ancohuma, 6425 m, ist das größte Massiv der Cordillera Real, der Ancohuma ist der dritthöchste Berg Boliviens. Eine Vereinbarung mit der lokalen indigenen Bevölkerung ermöglicht uns die Besteigung über eine neue, bisher unzugängliche und spektakuläre Route von Südwesten. Von unserem Basislager, traumhaft in der Nähe heißer Quellen gelegen, unternehmen wir erste Akklimatisationstouren auf die umliegenden 5000er. Dann geht es mit Hilfe der Trägermannschaft und 2 Hochlagern, fast schon im Expeditionsstil, weiter in die zerklüftete Gletscherlandschaft. Die Wegfindung erfordert Erfahrung und Ausdauer. Am dritten Tag haben wir es dann geschafft und stehen auf dem Gipfel des Ancohuma, 6425 m. Eine bergsteigerische Leistung, auf die wir wahrlich stolz sein können! Erläuterungen: Gz 5 h Die Gehzeit ohne Pausen beträgt fünf Stunden. [F/M/–] [F/–/A] [–/–/A] Enthaltene Mahlzeiten: F = Frühstück; M = Mittagessen; A = Abendessen. 1.
