IMG Mexico Volcanoes Team (Tyler Nachand)
IMG leader Tyler Nachand reports all’s well in Mexico. The team arrived yesterday in Mexico City (about 7350 ft) with their luggage and got settled in for the night at the hotel in time for their first team dinner. This morning they headed for Amecameca (8100 ft) where they hit the local market, checked out the hotel and had some lunch. This afternoon they drove up towards Paso Cortez, the saddle between Iztaccihuatl and Popocatepetl and took a nice acclimatization hike, reaching 13180 ft. Now they are ensconced back at the hotel in Amecameca. All’s well in Mexico!
