People walk along the slopes(斜坡)of the Cayambe volcano during the Ruta del Hielo (Ice Route) competition, 45 kilometres north of Quito, August 27, 2006. Participants carry blocks of glacial ice(流动冰)on their backs down the 5,790 meter-high volcano to the town. The annual competition evolved(进化)from the tradition of ice harvesting to make ice cream, a practice that died with the advent(出现) of electric ice-makers.
Note:
2006年8月27日,人们登上基多开亚姆博火山进行背冰比赛。他们将把冰块背在背上走下5790米高的火山。这项比赛来源于最早的采冰制作冰淇淋传统。
