Venezuela 1996

The main goal of our second trip to Venezuela was climbing the Monte Roraima table mountain (after we saw it from below in 1993). Compared to climbing Auyan-Tepui (what we did thirteen years later), the second Venezuelan table mountain tourists are allowed to ascend, Mt. Roraima is significantly easier.
