The director and guide of the 7 Summits Club Lyudmila Korobeshko sends from Mexico:

Hola! Greetings to everyone from Mexico from the group "Feathered Serpents of Quetzalcoatl"! This morning, December 23, we woke up in tents at an altitude of 4200. And how did we end up here?

Yesterday we moved from Huamantla to the village of Zoapan (our base at the foot of the mountain). There we took technical equipment and went further - to the Base Camp (BC) of Orizaba at an altitude of 4200. Along the way we met groups descending. No one went down - they say it is very cold and windy.

At the BC we settled in large (full-length) comfortable tents. We walked up a bit, had delicious steaks for dinner and an unexpected dessert - cheesecake. And went to bed early to the howling wind.

Today is our day of walking and acclimatization. Tomorrow we will move to the upper camp and storm the summit.

Our motto is “venceremos!”

The director and a guide of the 7 Summits Club Lyudmila Korobeshko sends from Mexico:

Hola! Greetings to everyone from Mexico from the "Feathered Serpent Quetzalcoatli" group! Today we successfully climbed to the top of La Malinche (4440). This is also a volcano, like almost all the mountains in Mexico. A lot has changed here recently. So at the entrance, where the route begins, there is a queue and everyone is given a bracelet like "all inclusive". The paths have been widened and cleaned. The police are on duty everywhere. On weekends, a lot of people go to the mountain.

But all this did not stop us from enjoying the beautiful views of the pine forest and the surrounding mountains. We climbed to the summit in 5 hours, and descended in 2.5.

Tomorrow we are moving to the Orizaba Base Camp at an altitude of 4200.

The director and guide of the 7 Summits Club Lyudmila Korobeshko sends from Mexiko:

Hola! Greetings to everyone from Mexico! From the group "Feathered Serpent Quetzalcoatl".

Today we visited the famous Pyramids of the Moon and the Sun, which in fact turned out to be the very ancient city of Teotihuacan, which arose in the 2nd century BC. More than 250,000 people lived here then. But in the 7th century, for an unknown reason, people disappeared, and the city was abandoned.

 After the excursion, we went to a very authentic restaurant in a cave, where we tried exotic Mexican dishes - ant eggs, fried grasshoppers, meat with cacti. We figured out the difference between mescal and tequila, tried to remember the many types of cacti. Tired, we went to the hacienda under our tomorrow's mountain La Malinche. Here we went to bed early - tomorrow early in the morning to the first mountain. Our motto: "venceremos!"

Chile sends greetings! The "Stop" team is in touch. Yesterday we returned from the city of Capiapo, where we spent the night and had a good rest.

Tomorrow is a rest day, during which we will conduct classes with iron on mountaineering techniques. And at night we go to the mountain! The forecast promises good weather.
