Something not right?

Description

In autumn/winter there's no lake, just a stream. We camped on a grassy patch which presumably is submerged in spring/summer. Beautiful location, only recommended when there's little wind. We washed in the stream (o heaven!) and took some water for cooking. Few locals waved to us, nobody seemed to mind. *Update: in the evening the farmer that lives nearby came over, thinking we were cattle thieves. After a mildly confusing chat we established the place is safe (no pumas) and he didn't have a problem with us staying. He asked for a tip and we gave him 15 BOB which he was happy with.

Report Check-In

We spent a quite night here at the lake shore (in Dec. there was water). There is a wall / sheperds house ruin that gives some protection from the wind for cooking or a tent. Lots of Llamas, cows, dogs, sheep and some people walked by but nobody cared that we are here.
