Parinacota - climbing it in February or March

Hello,

Has anybody climbed Parinacota in February or March ?
It is said to have more snow on the volcano. Do you confirm ?

Thanks

Antoine :wink:

This question often comes up, not sure why. It HAS been climbed in those months, but it is far from ideal. That is the rainy season in Bolovia, so it snows a lot and the avalanche danger is high, rainy down low and bad views. Though of course not all seasons are the same, so it could be OK. Anywhere further south would be better.
