Mexico Volcanoes: King & Team Summit El Pico de Orizaba!

February 23, 2019

Posted by: Mike King, Dustin Wittmier

Categories: Expedition Dispatches Mexico

Elevation: 18,491'

Couldn’t have asked for a nicer day to climb the 3rd highest peak in North America! The entire Team is here, feeling a little worked but with smiles on their faces. Warm, clear night to start and a slight breeze once up in the glacier. We have a lot of smoke obscuring the views to the East and clear skies our to the West with Ixta, Popo and La Malinche. We have a long descent ahead of us and we will check in once back at Sr. Reye’s hostel. Drew, we missed you up here, hope the flight went well! RMI Guide Mike King
