Ball, located in Powell County in central Montana, USA, is a small community set against a backdrop of vast prairies and magnificent mountains. It is sparsely populated and maintains a typical western small town feel, with a slow pace of life and residents engaged in agriculture, ranching or outdoor related industries. The surrounding natural environment and proximity to the Beaverhead-Deerlodge National Forest is a haven for hiking, hunting and fishing enthusiasts. Though small, Powell carries the simplicity and freedom of Montana's "Wide Open Sky State," away from the hustle and bustle of the city, and is a perfect place for those looking for a peaceful, nature-inspired experience.
Sigchos is located in the central Ecuadorian province of Cotopaxi, in the hinterland of the Andes, at an altitude of about 2,800 meters above sea level, a typical highland mountainous area. It is known for its magnificent natural scenery and original culture, surrounded by rolling meadows, steep valleys and the distant snow-capped peaks of the Cotopaxi volcano. The local economy is based on traditional agriculture, growing alpine crops such as potatoes and corn, and the Indian community retains its traditional handicrafts and festive customs. In recent years, it has become a "hidden paradise" away from the hustle and bustle of the city, attracting travelers who love nature and culture, thanks to eco-tourism programs such as hiking trails, bird-watching and rural experiences.
