P. PEARSON 1952 To meet more descendants. Their main crop once 2 runs of potatoes. Number of children is large but surviving few. Vitamin A deficiency serious & widespread around Julboca - and elsewhere. Teeth good in some regions of altiplano, poor in others. Mrs Duffie feels that IQ is generally low. Passed a fence today! May 2 Temp at 6 a.m. 22°. Trofs had 6 Abodona Solin. + 1 Heferamupa. Tail of abodona seemed long & thin, it is interesting that the grass is much lower here, despite equal cold at night, and even before crossing the divide (JaBoya). Took off early and drove all day - down the Umbamba Valley to below Urca, then up a dark road to Pancartambó, then up the next cuemba to camp. Because the road was one way today (our way), we had to do most of scenic part to Pancartambó in the dark. Arrived at the summit (11,500') where the Tres Cruces road branches off at 11 p.m. and camped. The passet JaBoya is only about 14,000 ft.; good pasture near there and some dykes on both sides of divide with "pineapple" plants. On the way down the east side, saw field of oats? at 13,600'; at 12,600 ft. eucalyptus and cherry. Chief crop from 13,000 down to 11,000 or less was wheat, which was ripe and being harvested. Much threshing by driving oxen and busome round & round on heap of it. At 12,300 ft (see photo) and even higher the general aspect is so lush with trees of several kinds, bucles, weeds such as Runep, guarin, etc that I no longer consider it altiplano. I feel that perhaps the limit to altiplano should be about 12,500 on the east side. Perhaps 11,500 on the west. First corn seen at 12,100 ft, considerable more below
