Jim and Eric on the top - 18,880'
Despite challenging conditions John, Jim and Eric were able to summit Orizaba this morning. John called in at 8AM this morning to report that they were on the summit after about 6.5 hours of climbing through windy, icy and cloudy conditions. Climbing Orizaba is not normally a wilderness experience but John mentioned that there were no other teams on the mountain today. After a quick break on top the team descended back to the hut where they were picked up by their 4x4 and driven back to Tlachichuca to a welcome shower and dinner at the Reyes family base camp.
Nice work guys!
