Mexico’s Volcanoes: Nelson & Team Summit El Pico de Orizaba!

February 24, 2018

Posted by: Chase Nelson, Lucas Haaland

Categories: Expedition Dispatches Mexico

Elevation: 18,491'

Orizaba success! I'm happy to report that the whole team is back to camp following a successful climb or Orizaba, Mexico's highest point and North America's third highest point. The weather today was perfect for a climb and the team made the round trip from camp to summit and back in eight hours. Good job team! Now we'll pack up our things and head down for a celebratory dinner in Tlachichuca. It's a long bumpy journey back but I think I can speak for the team that it is well worth the trip.
