For all the friends who have seen the news, they are safe and well
An E Mail from Shaun:-dunno if youv seen the news about machu pichu . we´d walked and camped for 2 days over a 4000m mountain to our campsite . we were supposed to head to machu pichu the next day but in the morning we were told its too dangerous to go on . the had there worst storms in decades and they had to shut the inca trail for the first time ever . there was landslides , rivers overflowing , bridges collapsing and telephone poles falling . everyone had to evacuate the mountain . on our way back we had to sprint over collapsing bridges jump rivers and edge our way over cliffs about 2 feet wide over drops of a few hundred meters . we had to cross a landslide . the dirt was slipping under our feet when we had to cross it . we were inches away from the drop . after we crossed it the next group after us (about 20 mins later ) tried to cross the same thing and it collapsed and some fell and died . we had to run to the only bridge off the mountain . ( we heard its collapsed now , we only got back this mornin). we were the last group to get off the mountain . theres still about 1500 people trapped there , theres no money left in the atms up there so noone has money to do anything . so far theres a minimum of 10 people died up there but people are going to be trapped for another 2-3 days
Our thoughts are with those less fortunate
