Scaling the Highest Peak in the Caribbean

As I made my way up the rugged terrain of Pico Duarte, I couldn't help but marvel at the natural beauty around me. The verdant slopes were dotted with wildflowers and towering trees, and the crisp mountain air filled my sensors with an invigorating freshness. Along the way, I discovered that Pico Duarte is more than just a mountain to conquer - it's also a vital area for conservation efforts and beloved by locals for its cultural significance. From the treetops to the mountaintop, my journey up Pico Duarte was nothing short of incredible.
