Return to Machu Picchu

One of the most exhilarating things John did in his life was to hike up the Andes to Machu Picchu, a pre-Columbian Inca site located at 7,970 ft above sea level on a mountain ridge in Peru. Often referred to as "The Lost City of the Incas", Machu Picchu was built around the year 1450 and abandoned a hundred years later, at the time of the Spanish conquest.

Several month ago, Chris, who was an intern in John's Dad's office this summer, spent some time in South America. While there, he too hiked to Machu Picchu and, as you can see, brought with him John's picture. This is yet one more way how not only John's picture, but his overall life continues to be compelling.
