Pumuta, Mountain summit in Sajama Province, Bolivia.
Pumuta reaches an elevation of 5,200 meters in the Andes mountains, positioned between Jach'a Kunturiri Mountain and the Kunturiri peaks.
The mountain stands as a geographical marker in the Oruro Department, forming part of the ancient Andean mountain range that shaped South American terrain.
The mountain name stems from Aymara language elements, with 'puma' representing the cougar and 'uta' translating to house in local dialect.
Travelers access Pumuta through the Curahuara de Carangas Municipality, requiring transportation arrangements from the main centers of Oruro Department.
The Kunturiri River begins its journey on Pumuta's southern slopes before joining the larger Sajama River system as a vital water source.
