Farragut State Park is a state park in northern Idaho. During World War II, it was the “Farragut Naval Training Station”, a major training base of the U.S. Navy. The base was named after David Farragut, the first admiral in the U.S. Navy, the leading naval officer during the Civil War. The 4,000 acre park is located at the southern tip of the Lake Pend Oreille in the Coeur d’Alene Mountains, the northwest range of the Bitterroot Mountains. The park is east of Athol, and about thirty miles from the city of Coeur d’Alene.

North Idaho will play host to “adventure week 2009,” a series of “outdoor” races and events at Farragut State Park .

The jam-packed schedule will include a number of amazing races, including triathlons, mountain biking, and adventure races. There will also be orienteering competitions, mountain treks, and even disc golf tournaments.

I wanted to know if you could tell me trhe price and costs of that whole Macchu Picchu experience that you had.
    I will also be visiting Lima and Arequipa if you have other recommendations.
