Route Climbed: Southwestern Ridge (Normal Route)   Sucess!

Climbed with Boriss (ECU) by the southwestern ridge. I liked the scramble to both summits. Strong winds almost pushed me down to the crater side.

Amazing views during sunset. I enjoyed it a lot. Got a little sick at night.

Nice moonscape of the paramo. Giant frailejones are stunning!

Route Climbed: Southwestern Ridge (Normal Route)  Sucess!

Climbed with Andreea (ROM) by the southwestern ridge. Extremelly windy above 4,500 meters. Got to the summit (4,748 m / 15,577 ft) after two and a half hours of hiking and scrambling.

Spent the night at the concrete house. Amazing views of the other Ecuadorian mountains to the south during the sunset hours.
