Time to get the ____ out of here!
Our attempt on Ubinas ends with an eruption in the morning and a hurried exit and packing up. Notice the ash covered vehicle and the erupting volcano.

We went to the mountain with two Peuvian guides from Zarate. Since I was with my five year old son, we had to make sure there was at least one adult with us at all times, thus we went with Zarate adventures.

If I would have know the volcano would have erupted, we definately wouldn't have went up there either and would have attempted Pichu Pichu instead. Ubinas was chosen since it is an easier ascent.

"In fact, I think you should add your body fat to the rating of the climb, to get a true measure of your inner climber. So climbing a 5.7 with 22% body fat is way harder than climbing a 5.14 with 3% body fat."   --Mike Yukish
