Hasn't voted | It's some sort of white, very porous sand. It has a volcanic origin. It's nice to walk on when on flat ground, but when you encounter it on a steep slope it's horrible as it makes you slide back down all the time. | | Posted May 3, 2006 11:03 am |

Voted 10/10 | ...a lot. I know the Sajama desert (Bolivia), i think is a similar landscape. | | Posted May 18, 2006 10:56 am |

Hasn't voted | I have only been in the outskirts of the Sajama area, but from what I saw, it's similar to the Puna.
I like both places a lot. | | Posted May 22, 2006 8:38 pm |
