Delayed in Cuenca due to a bus driver strike, I took a day trip to Parque Nacional Cajas, about 30 km outside of Cuenca. Cajas sits at about 4300 meters and is a vast national park encompassing mountains and alpine lakes. It reminded me a lot of Glacier National Park in the
US, only without any trees. There are only very small bushes and grasses, almost desert like.Went on a 3 hour hike around a lake and up to a couple look out points. Very enjoyable day but very cold.
