A duffel bag is the way to travel on the plane with all you gear. By taking the time to acclimatize slowly, eating right, staying hydrated, and plenty of rest we hope to provide each climber with the best possible attempt at the summit. Orizaba is a very big mountain. Weather, route conditions, personal illness, or the lack of acclimatization may not allow us a safe ascent of the peak. Although we'll do everything we can to make your experience a positive one, we cannot guarantee that the party will make the summit.
Safety is our highest priority .
After a short meeting we'll show you around Mexico City and the usual tourist activities. At the conclusion of the meeting we'll go to dinner. We highly recommend flying into Mexico City on Saturday. This will allow time to rest from your flight explore the city and start the acclimatization process. Mexico City is about 6000 ft above sea level.
