Where Am I in Peru

[+KBer]

I received a email from my Mother In Law asking if I could determine where this picture is taken. The map base that I have or can easily access can only narrow down the location to Peru. Please take a look at the picture and perhaps someone has a more detailed map set of South America and can specifically identify this high mountain location.

Is that Machu Picchu I see in the reflection in the glasses?

20.8 km ExNE of Yura, 23.7 km N of Arequipa

Most importantly, you are 123.5 miles from the nearest geocache.

No offense, but that's the ugliest mother-in-law I've ever seen.

 

I am guessing that the picture was taken at S16 11.350 W71 29.869. Go get Google Earth and type that into the search box.

Mt. Hiami? closest landmark I could find. Southern Peru.

Perhaps someone over in the South American forum area would know. Maybe this thread should be moved...

so your mother in law is trying to find a place where you can't find out where you are... and you're not worried? does she secret plan you demise or just harbour a desire to see you several thousand miles away from her daughter!!!

It's not Machu Picchu. That's at -13° 9.8, -72° 32.75.
