Alpaca and Vicuna Peaks.

Hike:
RT 8.0 (incuding Zupjok and Alpaca Peaks). Hiking to Llama Peak didn't
require much effort. The trail is in great shape, which allowed me to
focus
my attention on the surrounding scenery. Clouds were slowly rolling in
but remained well above the mountaintops. I was thrilled that it
wasn't raining and that the wind was calm. I quickly reached the
very broad highpoint and wondered why it was given a name being it has
very little prominence. After scrutinizing Alpaca
Peak's barren summit, I resumed walking. I looked
forward to reaching my final destination; I wanted to have my tent set
up before oncoming poor weather.
