We wake up in a glorious sun. The views of El Muerto are unsurpassable, hence I take a few more shots, with zooms of the saddle.

| Even a 10-star hotel doesn't have this view! |

| The climb happened on the clearly visible slope from left down to right up. We passed left of the visible boulder wall, and engaged into the saddle. |

Atacama camp is the base camp for Ojos del Salado. It is made of a shack full of memorabilia of expeditions, a few spots for placing tents and pit toilets. The funny thing about the toilets is that, by a trick of wind effect, the paper flies up when it blows. The paper from the pit, I mean. So, when busy, you find yourself trying to avoid toilet paper flying from top to bottom to top and delicately brushing you when passing :)
