Talked to Greg Vernovage and the Ecuador crew the afternoon of the 22nd. The team was bedding down at the Jose Ribas hut on Cotopaxi for the night. Weather is hanging in there. A bit of snow this afternoon but nothing big. And, winds have been light.
The crew will get up around 11 pm, dress, get a bit to eat and go for a little walk. We’re hoping they have a nice summit to be thankful for come this Thursday and Thanksgiving Day. We’ll know soon.
