Just north of the famous Salar de Uyuni, Tunupa Volcano is somewhat secluded and sees far fewer visitors. It is beautiful, remote, and offers the best evening one could wish for.

At the Chile–Bolivia border and rising above 6000 m, Parinacota is an ancient volcano, a white sentinel watching over both countries, often disappearing into the afternoon storms.

Amazing live feed from a high-altitude balloon! Sent Sept 9 over the 70 cm ham band at ~300 kbps with a 1W transmitter—50 km range and Eb/N0 >20 dB. Brilliant demo of low-power, long-range video comms and tinkering. Don’t miss it! #HamRadio #AmateurRadio #BalloonLaunch #HighAltitude #RadioComms #DIY #Telemetry #Wireless #English

In 2024 and 2025, DJI drones, specifically the Mavic 3 Pro and Mavic 4 Pro, achieved record-setting, high-altitude flights over Mount Everest, capturing 8K footage of the summit at 8,848 meters. These drones, often operated with 8KRAW, showcased remarkable stability in high winds (up to 50 km/h) and thin air.
