John Hardy Memorial Hike 2015

In 2015 Loved ones of John gathered at Torrey Pines Beach and walked to Bathtub Rock, a favorite surfing place of John, and finally laid his ashes to rest. His daughter Meagan is featured in the film. His ashes had traveled with her all these years until this special place was finally chosen to let him go.

John's grandchild Eden is in the first part of the film, held by her Great Grandmother Janet and her Daddy Matt, his grandchild Keira is featured with her Great Aunt Maria, with her Daddy listening to words about her grandfather John, with her Auntie Kelsi, in the walk with her Great Grandmother Janet to the Bathtub Rock, with her Mommy and Great Aunties, with prayer flags around her neck and on the walk back along the beach.

It is difficult to capture the grandeur
of the valley beneath the presence
of the Pucajirca Massif. 

 




















 






One of the highlights of the Cordillera Blanca is  the beautiful
Jancapampa Valley.  A community of farmers mostly 
speaking Quecha with inquisitive children intensely
interested in the activities of tourists.
