  • I set out to climb Pico de Orizaba, also known as Citlaltépetl or Iztactépetl. It is a stratovolcano that rises to 5636 m / 18,491 feet above sea level. It is the highest mountain in Mexico and third highest in North America. The volcano sits on the border between the states of Puebla and Veracruz. Although dormant the volcano is not extinct and last erupted in 1846.

    Fantastica ascensione una montagna terrificante e spaventosa, vi ha messo a dura prova ma siete arrivati in cima .In un luogo di grandi spazi e dimensioni surreale ma con un gruppo di tanta amicizia e lealtà si arriva a toccare la volta del mondo. Complimenti ragazzi ...Massimo da Sora ciociaria.

      Very sad! It will change alpinism and many of the famous peaks.

    Great Vid Ras. I climbed Pico with Larry - in early Jan last year and there was a lot more snow than it looked in your climb. That refuge hut was one of the noisiest I've been in for sure!

      Thanks Jeremy! It was all bone dry when I was there in February. I have never been so dusty as when we got back haha. But yeah, the hut doesn't deserve 3 stars after that night haha. Had maybe 2-3 hours of bad sleep. I think it is worse than the hut on Rainier!

    Fantastic drone shots, pictures, and great climbing footage and all around excellent description of the conditions to climb Pico de Orizaba! What organization did you use to climb Orizaba?

      Thanks David! I used www.summitorizaba.com/ and was very pleased. I would give some advice. I stranded in the Puebla bus station and had to take a cab two hours to get to Tlachichuca. So check the schedule. And if you have experience with mountaineering then ask for a fit guide who can match your pace :)

      Thank you so much. Really happy you liked it. There are just so many hyped up people on TH-cam, and that's not me. So I am a little nervous about that. Will my videos do well without the hyper positive personality etc. Your comment made my day :)

    a good movie. Do you think it is possible to complete this route solo? whether there were any technical difficulties

    • @rasmuspreston
      @rasmuspreston  3 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Thank you! I wouldn't advice going alone unless you are an experienced mountaineer. The glacier is steep and there is always a risk of falling in a crevasse.
