IMG Senior Guides Romulo Cardenas and Timm Philips checked in to report that the team had a successful summit on Cayambe on Saturday morning! We’re excited that the team is starting their trip off on the right foot before attempting Cotopaxi next.

After descending from Cayambe, the team will travel to Papallacta, a famous location known for its natural hot springs and lovely hotel accommodations. The team will spend the day here and then travel to Hacienda El Porvenir to stage for their upcoming climb of Cotopaxi (19,347′).
