Greetings from Mexico! The second day of the program was entirely dedicated to climbing La Malinche, 4462 meters (14,500 ft). This is an important acclimatization hike before moving on to Orizaba. The day before, the group had acquired the name "Los Chingoys de la Montaña" and left early in the morning for La Malinche National Park. The weather was beautiful, sunny, and windless. The local mountain enthusiasts, who are plentiful on weekends, were almost nonexistent, but there were plenty of local dogs, who climbed with us and participated in a photo shoot. For this, they received well-deserved sandwiches right at the summit, and then left us alone. Today, our program includes a transfer to Base Camp. Guides Andrey Berezina and Valery Myasoedov.
