Dogs on 5200m

Voted 10/10

I've read about dogs making it to the summit of Aconcagua.

How did those dogs on top of Sangay seem to feel?

Were they doing ok?

	Hasn't voted	These dogs, although almost on a vegetarian diet (amazing for a carnivorous isn’t it?!) spent just few minutes per 100m of elevation gain. They live on a mountain flank and spend their days between 3000m and 4000m. Thus, they were particularly well fit. If they look sleepy on the picture, it’s mostly because they were fed-up of my turtle pace and ended-up taking regular naps while waiting for me!!!
