#1: Panoramic view N5W74 with tripod on spot

(visited by Luis Enrique La Rotta Córdoba and German Escobar)

23-Feb-2003 -- Getting to N5 W74 wasn´t difficult at all. Just an hour drive from Colombia´s capital Bogotá, in the savanna at 2,600 mts above sea level; that means rather cold weather. It is about 4 km. away from the famous underground Salt Cathedral of Zipaquira. The area is inhabitat by cattle-ranchers.

Green, very green and beautiful landscape !!!

We hope that after this first confluence visit in Colombia, people from all over the world will come to help us finding the other 105 confluence points in our country.
