Snow Capped Mountains
Personal memory by Antonio Fernández
2009 • Lima, Peru
“There is a snowy area called Pastoruri in the province of Ancast in Huaraz. Recently this has begun to melt because of global warming. Huaraz has beautiful snow capped mountains. I have seen and heard many stories about global warming.”
