KTM 620/640 E/GS Adventure History
We have been collecting information informally in the flea market but knowing those posts will soon expire, it's time to collect it here for the archives.
At the 2005 KTM Rally in Ouray Colorado, I attended on my 1997 KTM 620 Adventure. At the rally, I spoke with Silver Bullet who told me that these were in fact, very rare in the United States. It seems the original low-pipe version of the Adventure was not very popular here in the US. He too had one but had ridden his 950 to the rally.
The rumored numbers knocking around were: 5 imported to the USA in 1997 and 22 in 1998.
There was another bike at the rally exactly like my own. We parked them side-by-side and joked about the numbers (not believing them). Out of curiousity, we finally looked at the VINs. They turned out to be 4 chassis apart.
Since then we have collected a number of other chassis to see if the quantities are true. If all of the US bikes were produced sequentially, then there are more than 100. However, there have been differences seen in early production bikes.
This brochure photo shows a pre-production bike. Notable on this bike are the non-production muffler hangers and the clear anodized WP Extreme forks.
Here is a breakdown of some of the yearly changes:
1996: First year of the 620 E/GS Adventure. World market bikes have a low-pipe exhaust with outlet stubs. No US market bikes except for some grey market imports. Clear windscreen. Clear anodizing on the fork legs.
1997: First year of US importation. Dark tinted windscreen, black anodizing on the White Power WP Extreme 50mm fork legs. World market bikes continued with dual exhaust with outlet stubs. To meet spark arrestor requirements, US Market got USFS stamped, twin Supertrapp mufflers. To meet emissions regulations, the US bikes also got the dreaded Edelbrock Quicksilver carburetor and a charcoal canister. The good news was that the rest of the world got the Dellorto PHM40 and correcting the poor starting and erratic low-speed running was as easy as ordering the carb and cables right out of the factory parts manual.
1998: Same as 1997 but rumored to have a different shade of orange paint. Has not been confirmed. The Edelbrock Quicksilver carburetor showed up again and most were turned into desk ornaments or sold to unsuspecting quad owners.
The motorcycles located and identified so far:

1997 7862 Unknown owner in New Mexico (eBay sale)

The interesting thing is that they are NOT sequential. My personal bike could not be identified by the dealer and KTM North America had to be called to identify the year. Others have experienced the same thing. Many titles have incorrect years on them and it has been theorized that KTM built the bikes in one batch and titled them in the year they were sold.
The import quantities could still be correct since not all the US bikes were necessarily produced in sequence.
Another interesting gem stumbled on tonight that kicked off the authoring of this thread is this photo:
Yes, an orange Adventure with orange saddlebags, so what? Items not seen on any production models (at least not in the US):
Anything anybody can share? This is for the archive guys so chime in if you've got anything.
#8793 is now my bike (thanks Mike) and sorry to say it is not going to remain stock!!!!
It's also a glaring reminder as to why we can't buy the Africa Twin and other Dakar styled bikes in this country. Transalp? Tengai? Elefant? TDM800? Popular bikes in other countries but the US market forgot them before the last units were shipped from the warehouse.
Interesting stuff. Even in it's latter days in the U.S. market, not many Adventures were sold.
2001 = 110 units
2002 = 155 units
2003 = 178 units
Not sure on the 2004/2005's
Greg, I have a 97 sales brochure...
That came w/ my bike- looks brand new (was wedged in the sevice manual) and if you have'nt seen one I'd be glad to share it w/ you ifyou'd like.
This is an interesting thread.
I know Tom Warr and his bike is in excellent condition, well used, but also well cared for.
I have a 97 Adventure brochure I picked up in 97 and it clearly shows the bike you posted with the orange saddlebags. The weird shape is due to the fact that the saddlebag is designed to carry one front and one rear spare tire. The brochure also clearly states that the Adventure is not available in the U.S. I haven't looked at the brochure in quite a while, but if I remember correctly, it also has a picture of a bike with the low twin pipes.
Maybe tonight I'll pull it out of the archives and look it over.
the saddlebags fit spare tires? How would that work, folding tires?
Perhaps the Europeans will find this thread and say something about those saddlebags.
I know it's a terrible description. I wish I had a picture with tires installed as it's a cool idea.
I have the brochure that came with my bike but it shows the studio photo of the bike with the clear windscreen and the drilled muffler bracket: no hint of the plastic saddlebagged bike. In fact, there is a small studio shot of what appears to be accessory aluminum bags. I'd guess the one showing the saddlebags was from a 1996 brochure? It's time for us to fire up our scanners and share some pictures. This is good :D
Yes, its a good idea.
This is the bike that got me wanting a KTM!
I saw the picture with the tires mounted on that bag and fell in love. I have never seen these bags in person. I would probably freak if I did.
Guess that explains why you rarely see yourself comin' and goin'....
And if you estimated 110 bikes each year for 99/2000, the total in the US would be 685 US Adventures between 1997 and 2003. We all know that the 05 was a special order bike. Wasn't 04 also special order? So it's safe to say that there are fewer than 1,000 LC4 Adventures in all of the United States? :huh

Orioles' window of contention
A look at when each team is best suited to contend
When most people evaluate offseason moves, they focus mainly on the year ahead.
But with the hot stove season winding down, let's forget about the 2013 season for a second and think about the future.
This week, we're taking a look at every major league team to determine its optimal year for contention over the next five years.
This doesn't mean this is the only year that the team can contend, but rather which year should provide it the best chance for a World Series title.
To determine this, we looked at current talent, age of roster, farm system and payroll, as well as free agents who figure to be available and could help the team reach its goal.
And if youre team isn't ready for a ring in 2013?
Well, there is always next year. (Or the year after that.)
Baltimore Orioles
Optimal year of contention: 2014

HGINJ Stem Cell Program
The Human Genetics Institute of New Jersey Stem Cell Program is the coordinating group for stem cell research at Rutgers University. This group runs a seminar series that is webcast throughout the university, pilot service awards to promote funding of stem cell projects, and expertise on hESC, iPSC, and MSC regulatory issues within Rutgers. It is the successor to the New Jersey Stem Cell Institute.
SCRC Facilities
non-federally funded
lab space :
- Derivation of new ESC lines
- Working with non-approved lines
With the new NIH Stem Cell Guidelines now in place, there is much less of a restriction on working with NIH-approved stem cell lines in a federally-funded research laboratory. However, there are still some procedures that are not allowed in a federally-funded environment.
Since the SCRC was built without federal funds these procedures may be performed in this laboratory. Prior to planning such projects, please contact Dr. Martin Grumet, director of the SCRC. Your project will need approval from the Rutgers ESCRO committee before work may begin. Rutgers researchers should apply via the Biosafety online form and note the use of embryonic-derived cells or tissues in the appropriate form.
NIMH Stem Cell Center
The Rutgers Stem Cell Research Center has partnered with the Rutgers University Cell & DNA Repository (RUCDR) to establish the NIMH Stem Cell Center. This new service of the RUCDR will archive source cells for making iPSC, will make iPSC from cells representing mental health disorders, and distribute both types of cells to NIMH-funded researchers.

If anything, though, what Replica Sun Machine calls to mind is a previous attempt to meld aesthetics from about ten years back, the Beta Band's "Hot Shots II"--it's not a question of exact similarity by any means, but there's a similarly easygoing feel in the arrangements and the beats, something that invites drift and a steady crunch in equal measure.
It's definitely not album of the year (nor would it have nabbed that distinction in 2007 when it was actually released on the other side of the Atlantic), but the Shortwave Set bring just enough innovation with them to make this 45 minute disc worth your while.
If anything, it's the failure to rise above its component parts and create a unique and recognizable sound that keeps Replica Sun Machine from being the breakthrough album this promising trio deserves.

Thought this was a brilliant product. Would make decorating the tree so much easier. I put it together (took around 1/2 and hour). Tried my 7 foot tree in it and it wobbled a great deal. Wrapped some duct tape around the truck of the tree thinking I might get a tighter fit but the tree was still not secure. Took the stand apart and it is going back. The stand that came with my tree (not purchased from TSC) was far sturdier.
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend

great piece of furniture and a great experience
Deniese from Ocala, FL – Verified Buyer
I didn't actually see the furniture as it was a gift to my 5 year old grandson but my son said they are great storage pieces and my experience with the person I spoke to on the phone when I ordered them was great. She gave me her extension so if I needed anything else I could just call her and she explained everything to me and it was a great experience. And free shipping....well that was an added bonus as I live in Florida and my son and grandson live in Connecticut and it was shipped right to their doorstep.
Wonderful piece!
Robyn from Spring, TX – Verified Buyer
This piece is large, heavy, and quite substantial. It is perfect for the end of our daughter's bed, and it holds a LOT of stuffed toys. The top is a great size, and is very useful for additional storage. I have put together a holy ton of furniture in my life, and this one's instructions were a little... Weird. But since I have a great deal of experience in such things, I was able to easily sort it all out. All in all, this is an excellent piece.
Very Happy with this Cubby
Brandon from Boston, MA – Verified Buyer
This is an excellent storage cubby - we use it for our children's toys. It was easy to put together, around 30 minutes to fully assemble. Its well-made, fits nicely below a window (or anywhere else), and looks great.
Perfect sized cubby!
Alison from Alexandria, VA – Verified Buyer
We bought the expresso brown version of this cubby and it has been a perfect fit with the two level bookshelf that sits on top. The cubby is very sturdy, easy to put together and holds my kids toys well because the toys do not slip out in the front. My kids can also reach in each of the cubby holes easily to get what they need. Would highly recommend.
Storage Cubby
Rachel from Kingwood, TX – Verified Buyer
I absolutely love this product. I purchased 3 for my playroom in different colors and different cubby sizes (eg, 2 bins and 3 bins). They coordinate well with other playroom items. They are sturdy and rather easy to assemble. They help teach my kids how to organize their stuff. Definitely recommend it.
Still Searching for the Perfect Toy Box
Amanda from Arvada, CO – Verified Buyer
I have three kids and have been looking for a good toy box for 8 years. I'm still on the lookout. The openings are rather small and the shape of the box although neat to look at, doesn't offer adequate space for storage. The shape means that toys get lost in the back as well. The unit is close enough to the ground that my kids can display legos and play on top as a table. The weird part was they send you stickers (yes plastic stickers) to put over the screws so the holes blend in with the color. Um, no! Not a fan and we didn't put them on. The back side if cheap fill board stuff, not heavy wood like the rest. This would be fine up against a wall, but not where you can see the back. The back is painted, so at least is blends in. Overall, it seems priced right for what it is. The color choices were nice as well.
Great toy chest!
Claudia from McLean, VA – Verified Buyer
I bought this storage unit for the playroom in my new home. It is a sturdy piece of furniture that blends in nicely with my decor. I am completely satisfied with the purchase. It makes a great toy chest, too!
Great for the price
Julia from ATLANTA, GA – Verified Buyer
As other reviewers have mentioned, this is not a high quality sturdy piece, but it does the job perfectly for us. We use it inside a closet for toy storage and it holds a good number of toys and helps keep the nursery from getting so cluttered.
S. from MA – Verified Buyer
Love the cubby! It turned out perfect and it's been holding up well too. We've been doing a lot of fun purchases to slowly get the new place decorated up. Most our purchases here have been awesome overall.
Pretty good
Kelly from Dubuque, IA
Worked as expected to store all the toys, seems to be very sturdy, but not as high quality looking as hoped. The stickers that cover up the screw holes are obviously stickers and have already been scratched up a little. Serves it's purpose, but is obviously pressed wood with a generic veneer.

But Spestle is real and serious. It's a service that enables you to create a custom seasoning blend, complete with your own packaging, and sell it online. When someone buys your spice mix, Spestle will make the blends to order, handle fulfillment and cut the creators a check — just like a print on demand service.

From the Publisher"Rich, provocative, and multigenric. . . . The most consistent strength in 'Writing at the End of the World' is Miller's ability to locate existing binaries and blend competing arguments to produce strikingly original insights."
"Only a book as eloquently composed and carefully reasoned as this one could provide the critical optimism missing from the Humanities today. Miller's intelligent and moving study gives me hope that writing does matter after all, even and especially in the face of our greatest national traumas. This book is humanistic writing at its very best."
—Diana Fuss, Princeton University
"Richard E. Miller is that rarity in today's academia, a writer of passion and originality whose ideas never conform to predictable party lines. Miller is at his incisive best in this absorbing 'institutional autobiography' on how 'writing may be said to matter' in the post-Columbine, post-9/11 world."
—Gerald Graff, author of Clueless in Academe

It's been forever since i've written... But i haven't completely fallen off the wagon - just sorta. Especially with things like Soda but i am working on getting that under control by drinking hot tea...
Oh yeah... IM SICK! i have a awful sore throat. Before and after taking a shower this morning at my boyfriends, i coughed up that junk at the back of my throat. It was weird, i just coughed and out it came (much easier than normal). My boyfriend got me sick, bastard! But he made up for it today by taking me to Ulta. I love that store. And i finally signed up for their membership thing. But i got a smashbox kit worth $140 for $39 on sale. And a little ulta kit for $10 on sale and buy 1 get 1 free Revlon. So i got my foundation and tried their mineral powder - which isn't anything special. So yeah, i spent more than i wanted to.. lol
So i didn't get a 4.0 last term... Instead i got a A in PS 101, A- in CS 106, and B+ in BA 213.. Bleh But i am going to do better this term. Actually i just took my managerial accounting midterm on Wednesday and i think it went pretty well. And i have a speech on thursday for my speech class too. Last two weeks of school have been sooo hectic! I am ready for this term to be over... Because after this term I will have my business school pre req completed - even though i still can't take classes til fall! Eh, oh well
well, this week should be less crazy. i am trying to not let the craziness take over my life but wow its hard

BOISE -- Boise Police are asking for the public's help in locating a missing 68-year-old man.
Robert McFarland was last seen at his west Boise home on April 8. His family reported him missing the next day.
Family members tell police that Robert has ongoing medical issues and they are concerned for his well being. Foul play is not suspected in his disappearance.
McFarland is 5-foot-10, 220 pounds, with brown hair and blue eyes.
He is believed to be driving a 2000 gold Jeep Grand Cherokee with Ada County license plates.
Boise Police say they have entered Robert into the National Crime Information Center and the Idaho Missing Persons Clearinghouse, so if he is located anywhere in the country, law enforcement will be able to identify him as reported missing from Boise.
Anyone with any information on Robert's whereabouts is urged to contact police dispatch at 377-6790.

New putter pays off for Campbell at French Open
By Norman Dabell
SAINT QUENTIN, France (Reuters) – Michael Campbell's
decision to ditch the putter he used to win the 2005 U.S. Open
paid dividends on Thursday when he shot 65 in the first round
of the French Open.
The New Zealander's six-under total put him two strokes
behind leader John Bickerton of Britain.
"I changed my putter for the first time in two years,"
Campbell said. "The putter I used to win the U.S. Open and the
World Matchplay last year has been rested.
"Today I found it so much easier to align the ball. I've
had a frustrating couple of months with the putter but today I
hit 17 greens and this time took only 30 putts.
"Putting is the most important part of the game. Tiger
Woods is a good example of that."
Campbell said he would use his old putter again sometime —
he took only 10 putts for his last nine holes at Pinehurst last
year when he held off Woods to win the U.S. Open.
His defense of that major title ended in a missed cut at
Winged Foot two weeks ago.
"My mind was too bogged down with defending the U.S. Open.
Today it was finally free," he said.
Bickerton's round was also down to improved putting as last
year's Canaries Open winner equaled his career-low round of 63.
The 36-year-old Englishman changed his stance on the greens
after "a flash of inspiration" while practicing the day before.
Sweden's Joakim Backstrom was lying third, three off the
lead, after fading to a 66.
While 46-year-old American Bobby Clampett marked his return
to Europe after 19 years with a 71, 49-year-old Seve
Ballesteros's latest comeback went badly.
Ballesteros struggled around the turn, dropping 10 strokes
in five holes to card an 81, but the five-time major champion,
who has won this event four times, remained upbeat after
playing his last eight holes level-par.
"My finish gave me a lot of encouragement and I'm sure
things will be a lot better tomorrow," the Spaniard said.
Tournament favorite David Howell came home in 42 shots for
a 78, quadruple-bogeying the last by twice going into the lake.
Howell played alongside Jean Van de Velde (69), the man
famous for his collapse at Carnoustie's final hole in 1999 to
lose the British Open, who last year also found the water at
the same 18th in a playoff, to miss out to compatriot
Jean-Francois Remesy for their national title.
Double French Open winner Remesy, who has missed 10
successive cuts since February, had a 68.

Oldham Athletic signing Dan Taylor has hopes of returning to Newcastle United.
The teenage striker joined the Latics this week.
Taylor – who scored 12 goals for the reserves and youth team last season – told the Evening Chronicle: "Who knows?
"One day I still hope to achieve the dream of playing for Newcastle United.
"Even if I had stayed at Newcastle, I had the likes of Demba Ba, Papiss Cisse, Shola Ameobi, Leon Best and Sammy Ameobi all ahead of me. Playing for Newcastle is still a dream, but I'm firmly focused on the task in hand with Oldham.
"It's a great club and I can learn a lot from the manager here and his assistant Gerry Taggart. One of my last memories of being at Newcastle was to achieve a boyhood dream of scoring at the Gallowgate End when I scored against Team Northumbria in the reserves, it's a feeling I'd love to have again.
"Newcastle were great with me when I left and Willie Donachie and Peter Beardsley were really supportive of me.
"Even when you know you are leaving there is still life after Newcastle and Peter helped me quite a lot behind the scenes, he does a lot of things that people don't see at the club and when a player of his reputation is helping you, that's a special feeling."

Barrel race at the county fair, I like the fair in this county of less than 30,000 people. The barrels were a distracting bright yellow so I messed with the color.
15 comments
very nice processed and I like the movement in this one
I see the Les Schwab bags! They are bright so I agree that toning them down allows the viewer to place the attention on the beautiful horse and rider.
I like the motion showing in that ponytail!
Great action shot that captures the intensity and the focus of both horse and rider.
I think your processing really suited this subject – the musculature of that horse shows beautifully. Love the rider's flying ponytail and the pink shinguards (?) on the horse too.
I'm back…this is the third horse photo today. I'm horse-happy!
Love the scene and the processing of your well done shot!
Great action shot!

Been here? Rate It!
Only for fittest
You will have to climb for a very narrow path, it will take you 45 minutes to 1 ½ hour to complete it and you will arrive to a plce where you will see and amazing landscape of Machu Picchu Citadel, it will take you 45 minutes to go down. The time depends of you physical condition.
There is also A Temple of Moon, but The track to the temple of the moon is hard, with steps during the whole trek; the average time that one has to trek to arrive and come back to Wayna Picchu is 3 hours.
You can enter from 7 a.m. to 2 p.m. and it closes at 5 p.m.
Huchuy Picchu
Most of the hikers choose to go to Huayna because it's the most famous in Machu Picchu area, but there's also the little Huchuy Picchu that you can also go up. When you descend about halfway to the split, you'll see a sign to direct you to Huchuy, which is a bit shorter, but personally, I think has a better vantage view of the lost city. The last few minutes of the hike to the top require the use of rope, so it's not for everyone. But it's less crowded, and highly recommended if you have the energy after climbing the bigger Huayna.
Extra climbing at Huaynu Pichu -- Moon Temple!
If you're not in a rush to go down from Huayna Picchu, there is also an alternate route to the great cave of the Moon Temple. Ladders are involved to go down to the great cave and some people might find it difficult to do the narrow Cliffside staircase (fear of heights).
And then after reaching the Moon Temple, you have to go back up again to the original path because the great cave is at a lower altitude. So, because of this tiring up and down, up and down route, people just skip the Moon Cave. And guess what, I was one of them, hehehe…. (lazy bum)
- Mountain Climbing
Go up jutting peak you see on pics of Machu Pich
After seeing the Machu Picchu the previous day, I returned to go up that mountain that overlooks it and looks so amazing on pictures (that jutting peak you see guarding the ruins). The mountain is called Huayna Picchu.
The gates open early and only 400 people are allowed per day in two groups of 200 to climb up Huayna Picchu (Young Mountain). I was greeted by a registry at the gate to the Huayna Picchu (separate from the main gate to Machu Picchu) and at the time, they were securing signatures and emails for making Machu Picchu one of the New Seven Wonders! And so I did sign, and lo and behold, on June 7, 2007 this place was named one of the new Seven Wonders of the World!
At first I thought the climb could not be too hard, but it took me about 45min to an hour to reach the top (stopping at some areas to take pics). Some of the stairs are really steep, and close to the top, you have to go through a narrow tunnel and crouch down. It seemed to me that there were other ways to go up but that seemed to be the most logical choice for me then.
I also noticed at the top a person holding some king of radio, and I guess there are also guards to make sure that everything is in order at the top.
But once you're there on the top, you see the zigzagging road that the Bus takes to go up to Machu Picchu and you just marvel at the whole site. I felt like I was on top of the world! Like some Peruvian Zeus looking over the ruins…

Hiking Huayna Picchu
I have just been reading all the post's and I just wanted to clarify a few things.... I think taking a bus to Machu Picchu is no problem. That is what I would suggest looking into. If your asking about hiking the actual mountain that is at Machu Picchu it is called Huayna Picchu I don't know that I would recommend taking your 8o year old relative up that mountain. There is plenty to see and do besides hiking the mountain (Huayna Picchu) The sites in an around the mountain are amazing. If you do decided to hike Huayna Picchu you only have a certain window of time to do it in. Since I wanted to do the hike I actually feel I did not get as much time as I would have like in and around all the ruins. I hope this makes sense.
Let me know if you have any other questions
Make the climb!
If you are taking the time to go to Machu Picchu then make the climb up Huanya Picchu. Be warned, there are some spots that if you lose your footing you may plummet to your death. Aside from that, the view is spectacular. You may even see a condor gliding over the valley while you're up there.

Climbing Macchu Pichu Mountain instead
Everybody strives for climbing Huayna Picchu, we followed our tour guide's advice instead and climbed Machu Picchu Mountain, which is located opposite Huayna, on your left hand when you enter the site, following the signs to Puerta del Sol. It takes approx. 3 1/2 hours to get up and down, so if you are not perfectly fit or used to mountain climbing you should pass it.
Here there are no limits on time or persons allowed and no registration counter. Don't expect crowd either: we crossed no more than 10 people during the whole hike. Also remember to take some water, some food and something warm to wear, as the top is windy.
The path was made by the Inka and looks like a long stairway of stones, brinings you up to 3200 mt o.s.l. though marvellous nebular forest and incredible vegetation. In some points it gets very steep or exposed, but on the whole the guide said it is less dangerous than climbing Huayna (where some tourists actually died).
On the top you'll enjoy the full view of the Machu Picchu site and its surrounding peaks, but also of the whole valley and nevados of the Cordillera.
And the feeling of looking down on Huayna Picchu :))
This was the hike from hell. It was challenging, steep, exciting, and we were unprepared! Our guide told us that usually people make it up in about 45 minuts and down in another 45 minutes. She has done it so much that she does it in 20 minutes up and 20 minutes down. So Adrianna thinks she cando it in 20 minutes too. She is competitive and she is also a runner and has stamina. I guess she wasnt counting on me. Bottom line, we made it up in 1 hour and 15 minutes. My heart was pounding so hard and so loud in my ears I thought I was going to faint. We didnt have water or protien bars or anything!
I thought i was in hell and I was being tortured!
In the end I made it up and I saw the most beautiful view! I also got a workout and bragging rights.
If you have time to do the hike, you have to do it. Its grueling but worth it.
Climbing Huayna Picchu
To get another breathtaking view of Machu Picchu, you can join all the strength you have left and climb the Huayna Picchu. The hike takes around an hour. I was completely wasted from climbing the Putucusi Mountain (in Aguas Calientes) the day before, so I passed it. But my friends did it and both said it was worth it...
Well, the pictures speak for themselves...

Huayna Picchu
Es la montaña símbolo de Machu Picchu, la más alta detrás de la Ciudad Inca que se aprecia en las clásicas fotografías.
Se puede acceder a ella por un empinado camino de piedra y apreciar desde allí una espectacular vista. Camino a la cima se puede ver el templo de la Luna.
El ascenso a pie dura aproximadamente 50 minutos y tienes que ir pronto porque hay plazas limitadas
It is the mountain symbol of Machu Picchu , the highest behind the Inca Town that is seen in the classic photos
You may climb it by a steep stone path and to see there an spectacular view . In the way to the top you may see the moon temple . The climb is hard and takes about 50 minutes and you must go early because are limited the number of persons allowed each day
A good healthy climb
Huayan Picchu is the prominent peak behind Machu Picchu in all the photos. On top has its own temples/ruins. As posted by others, it is not the easiest hike but it sure is worth it. Due to its danger/traffic control, you must sign in and out of the hiking entrance and is limited to the first 400 people. On most of the trail, I would classify the hike more like a climb since its all rock steps and there isn't even a dirt trail to "hike" on.
Supersize Tip: 1. Others have mentioned having hiking sticks to help in the hike- I was glad the front entrance didn't allow my bamboo stick (not even metal tips). For me, having the use of both hands to grab the steel cables, and counterbalancing is more useful than having a stick. 2. Even though the main gate opens at 5:30 A.M. The entrance to Huayan Picchu isn't open until 7 A.M.

Early morning hike
We decided to spend the night in Agua Caliente the first day in Machu Picchu to have more time inside the Machu Picchu compound itself. It was a good decision for us and we arrived by the bus system at the front gate at 6:15 A.M.
There were barely anybody there and even the workers were barely stragelling in to thier posts. It was so peaceful and felt like we had the whole site to ourselves. It is also a different perspective and feeling to see Machu Picchu and Huayan Picchu covered in a shroud of morning clouds and mist. Very mystical and ancient sort of way. The pictures does not do it justice.
Another benefit is hiking Huayan Picchu early and not having to be part of the pile ups up and down the narrow, steep trail/stairs. It felt like a complete zoo when 11:30 a.m. rolled around the wave of people started arriving from the first train up. Luckly, we were close to our fill of the place and when people were coming up on the bus, we were going down!

Climb Huayna Picchu
If you are in shape, climbing Huayna Picchu is a must. Huayna Picchu is the prominent peak at the northern end of Machu Picchu. Often shrouded in clouds, this peak offers unrivaled panoramic views of Machu Picchu on clear days. Paradoxically, the ruins of Machu Picchu look at once smaller and larger from this viewpoint. Equally amazing are the ruins found at the top of the peak, which can be reached with a little bit of sweat in anywhere from 30 minutes to an hour depending on your fitness level (the record is something absurd like 17 minutes). Just be sure to head out early – the trail, which starts behind the Sacred Rock, closes at 1:00 pm and is limited to a fixed number of hikers each day.
Take a Hike up to Wayne Picchu
I started around to hike up wayne Picchu. I followed behind a tour group had no choice. I took a water break when they did and when they took too long I went around like the other hikers. The steps became smaller and shorter and steeper.
Tip-Bring water,food snacks,camera good shoes and lots of physical energy.
Thats why I did this early in the AM. when I got up to the top it was a bit crowded.
And going down I met lots of people saying are we there yet?
It was a sunny and warm day when I hiked up.
Its about and hour up and 40 mins down depending how fast you walk or climb up the steps.

Photo: AKTC/Sebastian SchutsyerAmong the many components of good governance is one that is often overlooked: pluralism, which can be defined as appreciation, tolerance, and openness towards other peoples' cultures, social structures, values and beliefs.
Music, for example, plays a vital role in the cultures of Central Eurasia and the Middle East, where it has traditionally served not only as entertainment, but as an expression of moral values and the power of community. In the region, musicians often fulfill the role of cultural ambassadors to neighbours and the wider world beyond.
"I firmly believe that peace will be possible only when the pluralistic nature of human society is recognised, seen as a source of strength rather than weakness, and used as a basis for the formulation of policies and structures at all levels of governance."
His Highness the Aga Khan, upon receiving the Kazakhstan State Award for Peace and Progress, December 2002Cultural institutions are therefore a part of a healthy civil society, yet in many areas of the world traditional cultures are facing decline – in some cases, disappearance. The Music Initiative in Central Asia, which was established by His Highness the Aga Khan in 2000, is designed to help ensure the preservation of Central Asia's musical heritage and its transmission to a new generation of artists and audiences.
Its Tradition-Bearers Programme comprises a network of music schools and centres in Afghanistan, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, and Tajikistan in which master musicians train disciples through the time-honoured process of apprenticeship known as ustâd shâgird. Revival of the ustâd shâgird system is intimately linked to the revitalisation of orally transmitted music itself.

Friday, Oct. 12
Calgary at Dallas (8:30 p.m. EDT)
The Flames (0-2-1) are the lone winless team in the Western Conference.
-Mats Sundin, Maple Leafs, set two Toronto records with his goal in an 8-1 rout of the New York Islanders.
-Fredrik Sjostrom, Coyotes, scored two goals and Phoenix beat Nashville 6-3.
-Erik Cole and Chad Larose, Hurricanes. Cole scored twice and Larose had three assists to help Carolina defeat Ottawa 5-3.
-Tomas Vokoun, Panthers, stopped all 29 shots he faced in Florida's 3-0 win over New Jersey.
-Tim Connolly and Brian Campbell, Sabres, each had a goal and two assists to lead Buffalo past Atlanta 6-0.
Toronto's Mats Sundin scored his 390th goal for his 917th point on Thursday night to break the ties he'd shared with Darryl Sittler for club records in both categories. Earlier in the game, Sundin was credited with an assist but were informed five minutes into the third period that it had been mistakenly awarded.
Atlanta, last season's Southeast Division-champs, have dropped its first four games of the season after a 6-0 defeat at Buffalo on Thursday night. It is the Thrashers' worst start since losing nine straight to open the 2002-03 season. In their four losses, Atlanta has scored only four goals. ... New Jersey dropped to 1-3 after a 3-0 loss at Florida, its worst start since the 2001-02 season. Martin Brodeur, who won his third Vezina Trophy as top goalie last season, is off to an 0-3 start.
Ottawa's season-opening five-game winning streak was halted with a 5-3 home loss to Carolina on Thursday night. The Senators fell one game short of matching their best start ever.
Fredrik Sjostrom, a healthy scratch for Phoenix' first-three games of the season, scored twice to lead the Coyotes to a 6-3 win over Nashville on Thursday night.
Ottawa center Jason Spezza had two more assists to increase his total to 10 in Thursday night's 5-3 loss to Carolina. He has an assist in each of the six games he has played, though he has yet to score this season.
Canucks center Ryan Kesler called for Philadelphia enforcer Jesse Boulerice to receive a 20-game suspension for cross-checking him in the head. Boulerice faces an automatic review by NHL disciplinarian Colin Campbell after he received a match penalty and game misconduct for the incident in the third period of Philadelphia's 8-2 victory in Vancouver on Wednesday night.
Ottawa goalie Ray Emery was assigned to Binghamton of the American Hockey League on Thursday for a two-game conditioning stint.
Chicago senior vice president Bob Pulford was reassigned Thursday, the first major move by the Blackhawks since Rocky Wirtz took over as chairman Oct. 5 after his father, William Wirtz, died last month. Pulford became Chicago's coach and general manager in 1977 and its senior vice president in 1990.
''Not that I was slacking off in the summer, but I had to really put the pedal down because we want to be an elite team,'' - Buffalo goalie Ryan Miller after stopping all 20 shots he faced in Thursday night's 6-0 win over Atlanta. Miller had allowed nine goals over his first two starts.
Re: Hockey today - October 12
Friday's key NHL matchup notes
Washington Capitals at New York Rangers
The undefeated Capitals will try to match their best start in franchise history and go 4-0 for the first time since the 1997-98 season. The Capitals have allowed just two goals in three games and have killed off all 12 of its opponents' power-play chances.
Chicago Blackhawks at Detroit Red Wings
Detroit's line of Henrik Zetterberg, Pavel Datsyuk and Tomas Holmstrom combined for two goals and two assists in a 4-2 victory over Calgary Wednesday. The trio has accounted for 16 points this season.
Colorado Avalanche at St. Louis Blues
Jose Theodore is expected to make his first start since undergoing offseason knee surgery. He hasn't faced the Blues since 2002 while with Montreal and is 0-3-0 with a 4.03 GAA in his career against St. Louis.
Calgary Flames at Dallas Stars
The Stars have won their two home games this season by a combined score of 9-2. They are 17-3-2 in their last 22 games in Dallas. They also have seven wins and one tie in their last eight home games against the Flames.
Vancouver Canucks at Edmonton Oilers
Edmonton took a season-low 21 shots in a 2-0 loss to Minnesota on Wednesday, going 0-for-4 on the power play. They were 27th in the league with a 14.2 power-play percentage last season, and have not scored in 16 opportunites with a man advantage this season.
Boston Bruins at Los Angeles Kings
The Bruins could get an offensive boost if forward Marc Savard is cleared to return. Savard, Boston's leading scorer with 22 goals and 74 assists last season, missed Wednesday's game with what the team called a "core" injury. He could return as early as Friday.
Re: Hockey today - October 12
Hossa sidelined, Thrashers call up forward to replace Hossa
ATLANTA -- With Marian Hossa sidelined by a groin injury, the Atlanta Thrashers called up right wing Darren Haydar on Thursday from Chicago of the American Hockey League.
Haydar appeared in three preseason games for the Thrashers, scoring one goal. Last season, he led the AHL with 122 points (41 goals, 81 assists).
Hossa was injured in practice Monday. He missed a 3-1 loss to Ottawa, the Thrashers' third setback in three games to start the season, and wasn't able to play at Buffalo on Thursday night.

Niedermayer, Selanne remain undecided about retiring from Anaheim Ducks
ANAHEIM, Calif. -- Fans chanted ''one more year!'' at Scott Niedermayer and Teemu Selanne when they joined the rest of the Anaheim Ducks in unveiling the team's Stanley Cup championship banner Wednesday night.
Even NHL commissioner Gary Bettman chimed in, telling Niedermayer, ''We, of course, would love to see you back'' during the first period intermission of the Ducks' home opener against Boston.
Niedermayer and Selanne have yet to announce whether they intend to play this season or retire.
Both players definitely heard the fans' pleas of another season, and witnessed the standing ovations.
''It was pretty convincing,'' Niedermayer said after the first period.
Selanne added, ''It was pretty awesome. It was emotional, too.''
Even while they wait, the Ducks have moved on. Defenseman Chris Pronger was named captain in place of Niedermayer, and the team signed defenseman Mathieu Schneider from Detroit during the offseason as insurance in case Niedermayer called it quits.
Then, Niedermayer said he told general manager Brian Burke that he was leaning toward retirement at 34. But now, he said, ''I'm not as sure as I was.''
The Ducks could use their two veteran stars. Anaheim had lost three consecutive games heading into Wednesday night after splitting a season-opening two-game series with the Los Angeles Kings in London.
''When things aren't going well, you'd like to be out there to help,'' said Niedermayer, who won the Conn Smythe Trophy as last season's playoff MVP.
He spent a harried summer in his hometown of Cranbrook, British Columbia, where he was bombarded by friends and strangers wanting to know if he'd be back.
''It was hectic in Canada, talking about it everyday, 10 times a day,'' said Niedermayer, who said he has not skated in months.
He returned to Southern California about six weeks ago, where he is less hassled and has had more time to think.
''I have a little bit of an idea in my mind,'' he said.
But he offered no timetable for making an announcement.
''The team has been too understanding,'' he said. ''This has taken it too far already. When it does come to a conclusion, it's probably best for everybody.''
During the summer in Finland, Selanne kept busy with daily off-ice workouts, shuttling his kids to soccer and hockey practice and whittling down his golf handicap. Being away from Anaheim kept his mind off hockey.
''It has been so easy because I haven't been around,'' he said. ''I know when I'm around more, I'm probably going to get the feeling again.''
Selanne said the Ducks haven't pushed him to make a decision, and he also offered no timetable.
''If I'm going to come back, it has to come from inside,'' he said. ''I want to make sure this decision is right.''
What if Niedermayer calls and says he's coming back?
''I'm going to have second thoughts,'' Selanne said, smiling.
Before the game, the Ducks celebrated the Stanley Cup title they won in June over Ottawa by raising an orange-white-and-black banner and lowering the gleaming Cup from the ceiling on a silver tray.
It was carried to a table where the Conn Smythe and Campbell trophies rested. The team also raised banners signifying its first Pacific Division championship and Western Conference title.
Selanne wore his glittering Stanley Cup ring, which includes the words 'California's First Cup' and the Ducks' 16-5 postseason record on one side. The other side has his name and 93, marking the Ducks' inaugural year, and 07 for their championship season. The ring contains 14 diamonds representing the years the team has been in existence.

Boulerice gets 25-game suspension
Friday October 12
VOORHEES, N.J. (AP) -- Philadelphia forward Jesse Boulerice was suspended 25 games by the NHL on Friday for cross-checking Vancouver's Ryan Kesler across the face, the second Flyer in three weeks to receive a ban of at least 20 games.
Boulerice's vicious hit came late in Philadelphia's 8-2 win over Vancouver on Wednesday night. After some pushing and shoving, Boulerice caught an unsuspecting Kesler across the face with his stick, leaving the Canucks forward lying motionless on the ice. He eventually got up and skated to the bench on his own.
"We're by no means condoning what happened," Flyers coach John Stevens said after Friday's practice. "He's going to have to stand up and pay the price."
Flyers rookie Steve Downie was suspended 20 games by the NHL last month for leaving his feet to deliver a deliberate and dangerous hit to the head Ottawa's Dean McAmmond.
The Flyers, once known as the Broad Street Bullies, have quickly established an unwanted identity as a team full of out-of-control goons.
"It's almost implied that's the direction we're going when it couldn't be further from the truth," Stevens said.
Boulerice received a match penalty for intent to injure and Kesler called for a 20-game suspension.
"There's nothing good that comes out of an incident like that," Stevens said.
The 23-year-old center practiced Thursday and expected to play Friday when the Canucks faced the Oilers in Edmonton. The swelling in Kesler's right lip and jaw had subsided, but he still had some red marks on his face.
Boulerice said after the game he was sorry for the hit.
"I reacted in a bad way, the wrong way," he said.
Boulerice was charged with assault to do great bodily harm less than murder in 1998 while playing for the OHL after a violent stick swinging incident. He pleaded no contest to a reduced charge of aggravated assault.
The Ontario Hockey League suspended Boulerice for one year because of the incident. But he played the next season in the AHL and was instead ruled ineligible to play until mid-November.
"Whatever happened in Jesse's head triggered something," Flyers forward Mike Knuble said. "For the most part, players don't want to see players going after each other with sticks in the face. That's not the game we're trying to promote."
The Flyers (2-1) play their home opener against the New York Islanders on Saturday night

Things will get better for the Padres; it's just that no one can say when
Have a question for Tim?Tim Sullivan Mailbag
LOS ANGELES – In their darkest hours – say, a four-game sweep by the Dodgers – baseball types are quick to point out that this too shall pass.
What they are unable to say with any certainty is when.
The conceit is that trouble is temporary, and improvement inevitable; that the same players who are presently stinking up the joint are due, any day, to commence being competent. The competitor's creed forbids any acknowledgement of intrinsic inferiority, be it ever so obvious.
So both before and after a 7-3 spanking by the Dodgers on Sunday, Padres manager Bud Black was clinging to the Pollyanna point of view that his team's recent decline (11 losses in 13 games) is more of a deviation than the norm. Underperforming players will rally, he argued, and there is hope on the horizon.
"It's a performance game," Black said. "Where is it going to come from? The guys who are here."
Maybe Black believes this blather, because he certainly recites it with sincerity. Yet after the Dodgers drubbed the Padres with a "B" lineup, extending their undefeated home season and completing their first four-game sweep of the Friars, the clear consensus is that Joe Torre's team is vastly superior and that Black's is bound for a return trip to oblivion.
"We see what you see," one Padres player confided to a reporter. "We just can't say it."
It is Black's job, of course, to make the Titanic seem like the Good Ship Lollipop; to persuade fans that there's some purpose in spending their recessionary dollars on a product conspicuously lacking in pizzazz and front-line players. Like Sgt. Hulka, Bill Murray's unfortunate foil in "Stripes," Black is a good soldier with a bad assignment.
Like Murray's John Winger, habitually last, perhaps the Padres are just pacing themselves.
More likely, the Padres' accelerating descent in the National League West is the predictable outcome when a 99-loss team decides to slash payroll in the absence of an influx of elite young players.
Chad Gaudin, who allowed three Dodgers runs before he recorded an out Sunday, joined the Padres less than a month ago by signing a minor-league contract after being released by the Chicago Cubs. Kevin Correia, who is scheduled to start tonight against Colorado, was signed as a minor-league free agent in December after posting a 6.05 earned-run average in his last season with the San Francisco Giants.
You might patch some holes with reclamation projects, but it's hard to compete for pennants with a scratch-and-dent starting rotation. Though Gaudin pitched reasonably well Sunday after yielding three hits with his first four pitches, he faced only half of Torre's regulars and suffered the indignity of being chased by a two-out RBI single by Dodgers pitcher Chad Billingsley.
