Adventures, of course, are full of the unexpected!

Our Ecuador trip has been no exception. The team had great climbing conditions on Cotopaxi as well as Cayambe. From there it’s on to Chimborazo – At least that was the plan.

This morning the team learned that the park entrance to Chimborazo had been unexpectedly closed and no climbing was being allowed at this time – a bit of a wrench in the plans!

Ecuador does happen to be one of the most spectacular countries in the world – so time for a new plan! After a quick discussion, this resilient team is now en route to the city of Baños, known as the “Adventure Capital of Ecuador”.

We’re bummed that Chimbo wasn’t in the cards, but excited to hear what the team finds in Baños!

Cheers,

CTSS Team
