Posted by: Casey Grom

Categories: Expedition Dispatches Ecuador

Elevation: 16,000

This is Craig Herd reporting in for the RMI Team on the Cotopaxi Climb. We are now at the hut on Cotopaxi at 16,000 feet. The weather is a balmy & cold. We just had an enjoyable dinner. The climbing team has come together very well. We're looking forward to an early morning start for our summit attempt. Everyone is in good spirits. We look forward to reporting in tomorrow. Thank you. RMI Team Member Craig Heard
