PROGRAM
Our tour begins with the picking up of passengers
at their hotel in Ica then to go by the Pan American Highway,
running for 30 minutes the southern Ica Valley crops planted in
different traditional and modern, such as cotton, potatoes,
corn, grapes, lima beans, asparagus, peppers, broccoli and
various fruit trees. We will pass through different towns and
villages, as the Tate district famous for the story that was
raised here, including the Inca Pachacutec and the beautiful
princess Chumpillalla that gave rise to the construction of
irrigation canal known as the Inca Achirana.
After 30 minutes you will come to the slopes of Cerro Blanco in
Ocucaje and we will start our trekking (hike) through the desert
in search of our first fossil, because that site is part of a
complex reservoir strata in the Central Coast with antiques
ranging from 45 million years ago to just over 2 million years,
our feet will sink into a strange accumulation of layers of
mostly sandy and clayey sediments, which buried bodies of
various animals as many of the marine environment land.
Appreciate the beautiful scenery Bad lands, the name given by
paleontologists to desert these whimsical forms submitted to
intense erosion by the wind, if we are lucky we can find shark
teeth, remains of turtles, crocodiles, whales and other animals.
After the walk we return to our car, out of Cerro Blanco and
head north to Middle White Hill, also called "The Cangana" where
a small walking tour can find up to 4 skulls Mysticeti (baleen
whale). After 30 minutes of this field trip we go on our
mobility Cerro Blanco South known as "Cerro La bruja" to
appreciate the nearly complete fossil of a whale with her baby.
On the way back to the city of Ica, we will appreciate the
beautiful countryside and especially Ocucaje vivendus modus of
the villagers and we can share some impressions with them if
possible. (BOX LUNCH)
