THE MULES THE MULES
The mules carry 60 kilos ( 132 lbs ) in loads of no more than 30 kilos (66lbs) each. In this way the loads are put on each side of the mule one side balancing the other. Ofcourse the loads can be of lesser weight, but never exceed the forementioned limit. It is important that the bags in which the gear is packed be sufficiently durable that they don't break or rip on being tied on to the mule or when the mules rub one against the other as they walk in a pack. During the climbing season the mules are kept in puente del inca. Normally they make the trip up and down to the base camps on a daily basis but all the same it is recommended that the mules be ordered at least one day in advance. In this way the muleteers can prepare the animals for the trip the day before since they tend to leave puente del inca at 4:00 am so as to be able to return before the sun sets.
Each one of the muleteers is usually in charge of up to but no more than three animals so as to insure that the loads are well taken care of. It is of utmost importance for mallku expeditions that the animals are correctly looked after. For this reason our muleteers are all conscious of how they treat the mules.
We also offer evacuation on saddled horses under the vigilance of our muleteers who will safely guide you down.
