Orizaba - true height?

I've seen it quoted as 5611m and 5746m. I'd be surprised if the latter were correct. Anyone know the truth?

Ah, I see. Now it all becomes clear. Thanks Scott.

Sorry to miss you too. Sounds like you had a rough time of it. We were really fortunate with the weather and snow conditions, it seems...

I just got back from Orizaba. After a stationary 10 minutes, my GPS leveled out at 18,512. It had a view of 7+ satelites, and the reading was pretty stationary +/- 8 feet or so before it leveled out.

Maybe this helps.

I climbed it on 12/31/05 and my GPS read 18,500'.
