Mexicos Volcanoes: King and Team Arrive in Mexico City, Ready for First Hike
This is Mike checking in for the November Mexico Volcanoes trip. Everyone arrived in Mexico City over the last 2 days with all their equipment. We had a brief team meeting and dinner last night. This morning we will head out early to get to La Malinche, a dormant volcano for the last 3,100 years for our first acclimatization hike. The bus ride takes us out of the vast and heavily populated area of Mexico City with its population of 22 million people and into the rolling agricultural communities near the border of Tlaxcala and Puebla states.
The goal for today is to hike to the top of La Malinche at 14,600’. We will check in later today once we are back down at the cabins.
