Chacaltaya ski resort the great, Is it really active yet, why the sounds are negative? I would like to have more information about one of the highest altitude ski resort in the world. It's description back to the Ande ranges. but really 4895m to 5395m altitude for skiing is something else! it is just about 400m less than our Damavand peak in Iran. We say it simply, where we live next to the fun coils at home, but we feel it in area by head-ach, lips colour purple, heart rythme faster and so on... But it is amazing.
