Fueled by “quimbolitos” (the Ecuadorian sweet corn cake), the team climbed to 17,000 feet giving them a taste of what Cotopaxi has in store for them. Mountaineering skills were reviewed, confidence was built and the Team Despacito continued to acclimatize. Following that the team returned to the Tambopaxi lodge to enjoy a well deserved hot meal with views of the mountain in front of them. They say thank you to their family and friends for checking in. Quimbo, Coto and Poncho signing out for now. More soon!
