Photograph: Galen Rowell/Corbis. From an article in The Guardian about restrictions on numbers trekking the classic route to Machu Picchu..."in 2005, the government acted to limit those trekking the "classic" four-day route to 500 a day as the rapidly growing number of walkers threatened to overwhelm the route's infrastructure and damage Inca ruins. " The article suggests this number is unreasonable; after all, out of the 500, only 200 are tourists, with the rest as their guide support.

Peregrin Falcon, a native species to the #Shawangunks. It's always exciting, and not altogether rare, to catch a sighting of a falcon on the fly! #Perigrine #Gunks #Falcon
