Due to the large number of decent quality photos I was able to take during our November 2006 vacation in Eduador, my trip report is split in two sections, each of which is separately downloadable in .pdf format (click on the highlighted title to open the .pdf file in a new window):

Part 1 covers the Western flank of the Andes, including the Yanacoche, Tandayapa and Mindo areas;

Part 2 covers the Eastern flank of the Andes, including the Antisana volcano, Papallacta and San Isidro.
