A quick update from our team in Ecuador. Climbers had a successful hike to the summit of Rumiñahui Central, with nearly all climbers hitting the summit. After they wrapped that hike, they made their way to the base of Cotopaxi (19,347 ft) and up to the Refugio José Rivas. From there, the team will do a training session on the mountain before taking aim at the summit.
