Summit of Chimborazo – this morning!!
Just talked to Luke on the satellite phone. 100% on the summit of Chimborazo this morning. Pretty cool. Luke reported reasonable snow cover and good cramponing. Weather was just fine, too.
They’re headed now to the town of Banos for a final evening in Ecuador. Banos is a nice spot – right on the edge of the high jungle. Plan tomorrow is to have Thanksgiving dinner with Romulo’s family, at this house, prior to heading for the airport and flights home. The plan probably couldn’t have come together any better.
Happy Thanksgiving.
