Today we summitted Cotopaxi volcano! I was sure I was not going to make it but we did and it was beautiful. Super hard though: wake up at midnight and begin climbing at 1am. Then you use crampons and ice axes to hike some very steep and narrow trails through the glacier while battling hurricane like winds. Summit is at 19,347 feet/5,897 meters. Now we are totally exhausted. Photos coming soon but here is a photo of my worn out hubby
Dear Nicole and Jose - I was holding my breath until I heard you were back safely. Glad you made it and hope you will find some safe, relaxing things to enjoy! Love, Mom
