PERSUADING A DIFFIDENT TRAVELER ON AN ANDEAN ROAD 



Louis Fuertes leads his horse through the ditches (canjiloncs) and over the ridges (almo- 

 hadillales) of an Andean trail. Roads of this character are produced by trains of pack 

 animals, each one of which steps in the track of its predecessor (see text, page 370).
