Wellington based WTMC 1968 Andes expedition team

Celebrate 50 years memory of a WTMC climbing expedition to the Peruvian Andes. For five young WTMC members [and three other climbers] it was the experience of a lifetime, exploring unmapped mountains, climbing virgin peaks and meeting people who had never met foreigners.
