ascent of Cayambe with a hardy meal followed by some good sleep.\u00c2\u00a0 After soaking in the hot springs of Papallacta, we all made our way to Hacienda Porvenir at the base of Cotopaxi yesterday for even more R and R.\u00c2\u00a0 Porvenir recently built a sauna and jacuzzi and the team took full advantage of the new amenities to rejuvenate their muscles and prep for our next climb: Cotopaxi.<\/p>\n<p>It\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s been a few years since we\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ve climbed Cotopaxi since its most recent eruption and it\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s now time to get back to one of the most, if not the most, iconic volcanoes in the world.\u00c2\u00a0 Word has it that the route is in superb condition and the team is chomping at the bit to put their crampons back on.<\/p>\n<p>We will drive up to the Jose Rivas Refugio this afternoon after lunch and get in position for our ascent tonight.\u00c2\u00a0 The weather is a little shakey this year in Ecuador, but we pulled off a climb of Cayambe and we\u00e2\u20ac\u2122re crossing our fingers for clear skies tonight on Cotopaxi.<\/p>\n<p>Stay tuned!<\/p>\n<p>Luke Reilly<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>November 9,
