After their successful ascent of Cotopaxi, Our CTSS Ecuador team have moved successfully to the hut on Cayambe which is a volcano in the Cordillera Central, a range of the Ecuadorian Andes. It’s about 70 km northeast of Quito and the third-highest mountain in Ecuador standing at 5,790 m.

Tomorrow they will do an acclimatization hike before getting some well-earned rest and then leaving early the next morning for their summit bid the next day.

Everyone is doing well & the climbing is excellent. We’ve got eagle eyes on the weather as being on the equator naturally leads to some fluctuations – all to be expected.

Cheers CTSS Team
