This is a north-easterly view out over the Rio Putana (Vega de Putana wetland) towards Cerro Tocorpuri (northern summit 5808 metres high, southern summit Tocorpuri Sur 5538 metres). Cerro Tocorpuri is on the Chile-Bolivia border and is part of the Tocorpuri volcanic complex. It is a dormant stratovolcano. The gently sloping mountain (summit 4633 metres, out of shot) on the far left in the mid-distance is Pabellon.
