Mision El Triunfo

Saturday morning Tom Ireton, JJ Katis, of Rapscullion, and I took off for a day trip to the mining region around El Triunfo and San Antonio about 48 kilometers south of La Paz.
Coming into El Triunfo the first substantial edifice is the Mision El Triunfo. It has surely lost some of its splendor from the time of the Progresso Mining Company but is still a most charming church in a land of hills, scrub brush, scrawny cattle and memories of days gone by.
