Cotopaxi, all programs »
January 20th. Hooray! It's happened! Early this morning, our "EG-Masters" team stood at the summit of the world's highest active volcano, Cotopaxi! The most agile participants reached the summit while it was still dark. The slower climbers were lucky enough to see stunning views and a beautiful sunrise. Valery Tebiev was the fastest, reaching the summit in just over three hours!
By lunchtime, our entire group moved closer to the jungle – to the town of Baños at an altitude of 1,800 meters. Here we rested for two nights before the decisive assault on Chimborazo. At dinner, we held an awards ceremony for the ascent of Cotopaxi.
Super Andinists Lyudmila Korobeshko and Alexander Spirin.
