We took a three day trip through southwestern Bolivia to visit, among other things, the worlds largest salt flat. After a day of blinding white vistas on the Salar de Uyuni, we moved into an otherworldly high altitute desert landscape full of multi-hued mountain ranges, flamingo inhabited lagunas, and wind eroded rock formations.
