Our Ecuador Volcanoes team have arrived in Quito smoothly and are all settled in. Guide Robert let us know that they completed all their gear checks (with flying colors) and their team briefing  this morning before heading to the Teleferique and doing a hike on Pichincha and visiting the Equator. They saw out a full first day with an Ecuadorian feast at our welcome dinner. Weather was beautiful today – fingers crossed it continues.

Tomorrow they head to Ruminahui for an acclimatization hike before hitting their first volcano – Cotopaxi!

Here’s some photos from the team.
