Nuestra Senora de La Paz, La Paz, Bolivia
Bolivia

On the top of the mountain, the wind is howling in the old installation of the ski station of Chacaltaya, Bolivia. The station was the highest in the world, and stops a few years ago, because of the smelting of the ice (du to global warming).
The teleski cable and tube is still there and the wind sing in it! :-)

Sound recorded by a MS setup Schoeps CCM41+CCM8 with a Cinela Zephyx Windscreen
Sound Devices 788T recorder with CL8
MS is encoded in STEREO Left-Right
recorded in february 2014 on the top of Chacaltaya Mountain, above La Paz, Bolivia.
