Team Molé Mountaineers – Orizaba Summit Day!
We got up around 12:30am to get ready for climbing, and left camp at 2am in gusty winds. It remained a quite windy and challenging day for the team, but a couple of folks were able to make it to the summit of Orizaba! Everyone made good decisions, stayed safe, and made it back into our basecamp where we packed up and headed back down to Zoapan. A hot shower and dinner were very welcome! Final day for us tomorrow, thanks for following along on our trip!
