We heard from IMG Guide Romulo Cardenas that they reached the summit of Cayambe despite some wind and rain on the way and heavy clouds at the top.
After summiting, they returned to the hut, packed up and made their way down to Papallacta where they enjoyed a relaxing night at the famous hot springs and hotel. Today the team enjoyed a “rest” day, touring local historic sites and savoring fine Ecuadorian food.
Tomorrow the team will re-pack and head out toward Cotopaxi to prepare for their next summit. All is well!
