After more than 150, 000 miles at sea, skipper, writer and photographer Andy Dare figured it was time he had some adventures on land.

Cusco and the region were devastated recently by flooding and mudslides, brought on by the heaviest rainfall in 15 years. Parts of the iconic Inca trail were closed and a dramatic airlift rescue operation ensued to transport thousands of stranded travelers to safety.

As well as participating in a relief operation, Andy captured  images of the diaster and the aftermath.
