Yanamarey S: 1-1965 via S. slopes.[1]
Yanamarey[2][3][4] (possibly from Quechua yana black, maran, maray batan or grindstone, maray to tear down, to knock down,[5][6] "black batan or grindstone") or Yanaraju[7] is a mountain in the Cordillera Blanca in the Andes of Peru, about 5,237 metres (17,182 ft) high.[2][3][7] It is located between Recuay and Huari provinces, in Ancash. Yanamaray lies east of Pucaraju and northeast of Lake Querococha, between Matashcu in the north and Cahuish in the south.[7]
The Yanamaray River originates west of the mountain. It provides Qiruqucha with the melt water of the Yanamarey glacier before it empties into Santa River.[2][7]
Annual observations have shown that the Yanamarey glacier has been rapidly retreating over the last years.[8]
