The video below is of my son on top of Huayna Picchu. That is the tall mountain you see in the iconic photos of Machu Picchu.
There is a trail that you can climb that leads to the top. At times it can be a bit precarious. He's not much for heights. Me, I'm a contractor. I'm up on roofs all the time. Heights don't bother me that much. At the time they allowed 400 people up the trail per day. There is a log book where you sign in and out with name, age, and passport info. I glanced through the book signers for our day. I was the second oldest. It felt good to be old that day.

This is my son near the top

Not his best moment but he survived.
