On the summit! (Romulo Cardenas)
We had good news over the weekend from Ecuador when IMG leaders Timm Phillips and Romulo Cardenas report that the team had a good climb of Chimborazo  (20,561′), with 100% on the summit!  This is the highest mountain in Ecuador, and the highest on the Earth, if you measure from the center of the globe (due to the oblate spheroid shape of the planet). The climbers have now all returned to Quito and are heading for home. This wraps up our November Ecuador trip, which was a good one!
Next up for Ecuador is Our January 7, 2023 Trip. If you are looking to climb some fun volcanoes and get some great altitude practice, you can’t beat climbing in Ecuador!
