The statues are from San Augustin. There were 100´s of them all over the place ranging from 2000-5000 years old (according to the tour guide we didn´t hire). We stayed a night at Purcé National Park with hopes of a 15,000 ft. summit. With 40 something degree temperatures, a 30-40 mile an hour wind, and horizontal flying water pellets, we decided to look for another mountain along the way. We did get some refreshing iodine treated water out of the deal though... The Church is just outside the Colombia boarder town and was built because someone kept seeing the face of the Virgin Mary on the rocks of the gorge. It has a river running under it and a huge waterfall right next to it, I just couldn´t get it all in one picture. The alpaca was grazing on the side of the gorge on the way to and from the church.
