- Summit of Ishinca (Maximo Henostroza)
- Summit of Pisco (Maximo Henostroza)
- Climbing Steeper Terrain on Ishinca (Maximo Henostroza)
IMG lead guide Betsy Dain-Owens reports that the Chopicalqui Expedition ended with positive results for all participants.
The first climb of Pisco went off without a hitch, but predicted poor weather and high winds turned the team from attempting Chopicalqui to another, more sheltered objective, Ishinca. This proved a worthy objective and the team managed to stand on top on Thursday, July 28. Members are now either back in the U.S. or continuing their planned additional tours in Peru.
Congratulations to the entire team!
