Condori (possibly from Aymara for condor)[2] is a mountain in the Wansu mountain range in the Andes of Peru, about 5200m (17,100feet) high. It is situated in the Arequipa Region, La Unión Province, Puyca District, south of the lake named Ranracocha. Condori lies near Pichirhua and south of the river Ojoruro (possibly from Aymara and Quechua for Mimulus glabratus),[3] [4] also known as Sumana or Cotahuasi,[1] [5] which flows to the Cotahuasi Canyon in the southwest.
