 | Climbing up Guagua Pinchincha, which means "baby" in the local language. Pinchincha is a range with three volcanos, and last erupted in 1999. Supposedly two thousand people were hired to clean up volcanic ash. |
 | We drove up to 4000 meters (~13000 feet) and then walked up 700 meters (~2200 feet). It wasn't easy coming from Orlando, at sea level, to 4700 meters, about 15000 feet! Three miles! |
 | Sam with the walking stick (baston) that I found on the hike. |
 | It was cold, rainy and hailing at the top, this is the rim of the crater. On the right is Fabian, our local guide. |
