Hey everybody, Today was a day of rest, tourism, and a car ride to our 15,000 foot hut on Cayambe. After a light breakfast we leisurely packed our bags and headed to the famed Otavalo market. Being a Saturday the place was packed with crafts, fresh fruits, and local people. Shortly after lunch we loaded the bus and drove to the cute little town of Cayambe. At this point the clouds that had been floating around all day started to dump rain, so we changed out the bus for some 4x4 vehicles. We then drove up the bumpiest road known to man... The Cayambe hut road. After an hour of mud, rocks, and pot holes we made it to our home for the next few days. Everyone is feeling great and ready for a day of glacier training tomorrow. From the snowiest place on the equator, we'll talk to ya later! RMI Guide Ben Liken and friends
