The Guide of the 7 Summits Club Andrey Berezin reports from Mexico:

Buenos Dias!  The Totonaki group climbed the summit of Orizaba Peak today! We left at one o'clock in the morning, and already at 8 in the morning we were standing on top of the crater. We were lucky with the weather. Two days ago it was snowing, and today it was calm and clear sky. On the descent from the Base Camp we went to the city of Pueblo, where tomorrow we have a city tour.

The Guide of the 7 Summits Club Andrey Berezin reports from Mexico:

Buenos Dias! News of the Totonaki group. After the snow fell at night at the Orizaba Base Camp, after breakfast, we went to the acclimatization rotation. Before that, the crampons were fitted under high-rise boots, as it was slippery on the trail. In the end, the sun did not appear, although we hoped for it.  On the contrary, snow broke off at times. We walked along the mountain path, climbed through the maze to the plateau, where a fairly heavy snowfall had already begun.  Here they decided that we were hungry and went down to meet with Mexican cuisine. Tomorrow we will go to the assault camp, from where the ascent to Orizaba Peak will begin.

The Guide of the 7 Summits Club Andrey Berezin reports from Mexico:

 Buenos Dias! The Totonaki group continues its journey to the peak of Orizaba.  From Saltepec we went to Orizaba Base Camp.  Part of the way we went by bus, then, where the dirt road began, we switched to SUVs. The camp is located at an altitude of 4200. It snowed at night, and we found ourselves in winter. Our tents are of high quality, neither the things nor the participants got wet. After breakfast we go up the slopes for acclimatization. 

The guide of the 7 Summits Club Andrey Berezin reports from Mexico:

Buenos Dias!  Our group "Totonaki" moved to the active part of the program, in which today we had to climb the summit of La Malinche.  We did it! The height of 4400 and the height difference of 1300 are passed! A beautiful peak and a beautiful route to it. Everything was here today: beautiful forest trails, fascinating views of the surroundings located at the foot of the mountain, and stone scree, and even had to climb a little on the rocks when reaching the top.  Tired and satisfied, we went down to the Hacienda. Tomorrow we are already going to the foot of Orizaba Peak, where we will spend several acclimatization days before the summit assault.

The Guide of the 7 Summits Club Andrey Berezin reports from Mexico:

Buenos Dias! So we're in Mexico.  Where the highest volcano in North America is located - Orizaba. And our group is called Totonaki. From the capital city of Mexico City, we set off on a journey to this beautiful peak. We made a stop at the pyramids of Teotihuacan, where we got acquainted with the ancient civilization. After that we moved to Saltepec, from where tomorrow we will go on an acclimatization ascent to the summit of La Malinche.
