Success on Chimborazo

Richard and I were successful on Chimborazo (Veintemilla) yesterday. It was a massive day making the ascent in a little under 7 hours to gain the 6,267m (20,561ft) summit. The snow condition was excellent allowing us to make good speed up the mountain. Unfortunately the wind was terrible, and we both had a layer of ice coating all our clothing and climbing equipment. We both looked a pretty miserable sight, but actually it was not so bad. We both slept 11 hours last night and are heading to the local hot pools to recover fully.

Signing out from Quito.
