Mexico’s Volcanoes: Team Turns Back on Summit Bid

October 19, 2016

Posted by: Mike King, Steve Gately

Categories: Expedition Dispatches Mexico

Elevation: 16,000'

RMI Guide Mike King checked in from Mexico. Today the team made their summit attempt from High Camp but were forced to turn around at 16,000' on Ixta due to a major electrical storm on the horizon. The team descended and returned to the Altzomoni Hut where they packed up their gear, loaded vehicles and continued their descent. They will travel to Puebla today as scheduled and explore this beautiful colonial city. We look forward hearing more from them soon. RMI Office
