If you have ever wanted to participate in our Ecuador High Altitude Expedition but haven't been able to get away for the November - March time period we usually run the program, then we have good news for you! We have just added summer dates for this fantastic expedition, so you can now use your summer vacation to join our expedition - choose one of three departures: May 16, June 6, June 27. Ecuador has two dry seasons, a longer one during our winter, and a shorter one during our summer - so May, June, and July are great times to climb the famous Cayambe (18,997’) and Cotopaxi (19,348’) on a 10-day trip, and Chimborazo (20,703') on a 5-day extension. We also offer 10-day trips to climb Illiniza Sur (17,268') and Antisana (18,714'), and are offering three summer departures for this trip as well: May 16, June 6, and June 27.

To learn more about these expeditions, please get in touch with Andy Bourne at abourne@aai.cc or at 360-671-1505.
