Mexico’s Volcanoes: King & Team Summit Ixtaccihuatl

February 20, 2019

Posted by: Mike King, Dustin Wittmier

Categories: Expedition Dispatches Mexico

Elevation: 17,340'

This is Mike, we topped out on Ixtaccihuatl around 7:50 am with a stiff wind for the entire climb. The air temperature was warm and we had a beautiful full moon. The combination of moon light and wind made for a crystal clear climb and amazing sunrise. We are in our descent now and will check in once we are back down at the bus. RMI Guide Mike King
