Mexico Volcanoes: Waterfall & Team at Altzimoni Hut on Ixta
Posted by: Seth Waterfall, Solveig Waterfall | February 11, 2013
Categories: *Expedition Dispatches *Mexico
Elevation: 13,000'
13,000! That’s our sleeping elevation tonight at the Altzimoni hut. We started the day with the best breakfast in Mexico at the Mission Tlaxcala. Then we drove back to the west and around Ixta, with a few pit stops along the way. Once we reached the town of Amecameca we loaded up on water and drove to the Altzimoni hut. After getting settled the group headed out for a light hike. After that we made dinner and now everyone is tucked in their bunks and getting ready to move to high camp tomorrow. We will check back in from there.

Mexico Volcanoes: Waterfall & Team Acclimatize at La Malinche
Posted by: Seth Waterfall, Solveig Waterfall | February 11, 2013

Elevation: 14,636'
Hola! We’re at La Malinche. Everything was pretty smooth getting out of the city this morning and we had great views of Ixta on the drive. Once we checked into out cabins at La Malinche we went for a great hike to acclimatize. 3.7 miles and about 3,500 feet up to a prominent ridge on the mountain. After a few pics we reversed course and headed toward the dinner bell. We’ll check in again tomorrow.

Mexico Volcanoes: Waterfall & Team Arrive in Mexico City
Posted by: Seth Waterfall, Solveig Waterfall | February 09, 2013
Categories: *Expedition Dispatches *Mexico
Buenos Días! Everyone has arrived on time in Mexico City and most importantly we’ve got all our gear. We had our first team meeting at the hotel where we got to know each other a bit and went over the basics of the next nine days.
After that we braved the large crowd outside that has gathered for a free concert in the Zocalo. It sure feels like the biggest city in the world tonight. We had a great dinner just down the street at Café Tacuba, complete with a mariachi band. A few of the guys are checking out the concert while the rest of us are back in the hotel. We’re headed for the mountains bright and early tomorrow to start our acclimatization.
