Team had another great day in Ecuador. Acclimatization is huge at this point of the trip and a hike to the top of Imbabura was just what the doctor ordered. Night was spent at the Hacienda Guachala, near the base of Cayambe. Plan/goal for today is to get up to the hut on Cayambe and sleep at 15K. Keeping with the ‘acclimatization theme’, they’ll use tomorrow for some training/review and get another night at 15K before taking a shot at the top.
All is pretty much as good as it gets in Ecuador.
