The area includes Quimiaq parish at an altitude of 2,900m (9,514ft), Ilapo parish at an altitude of 3,300m, (10,827ft), and San Isidro parish at an altitude of 3142m (10,308ft). Andean Adventures has been working together in planting Polyelpis seedlings with the communities in each of their territories, and building water catchments that provide a considerable quality of life improvement for the community members.
