Luke reported in saying all luggage is now in hand and that everything else is going smoothly. Since arriving in Otavalo, the crew’s been hiking around Cuicocha, visited a local weaver who’s a good friend of Romulo (and ours) and spent Saturday morning visiting the animal market as well as checking out the famous Otavalo Market after breakfast. Dinner was at a beautiful hacienda about 30 mins from town. Hiking Fuya Fuya is on the agenda for Sunday, with the team ending up at Papa Gayo, near the town of Cayambe, for the night. All good.

A bit north in the country of Mexico, Austin Shannon is leading our first Mexico Volcanos trip of the season. Everyone arrived Saturday afternoon AND with all their luggage. After introductions and a short team meeting at our hotel, the team headed out to their first dinner together. They’re off Sunday morning for the town of Amecameca and their first look at Ixta as well as their first acclimatization hike. Off to a good start.
