. STORIES
IN STAMPS
Once Called Worlds
lOftiest Peck

A VOLCANIC peak, towering
\ 2O,5OO feet high in tho Ecua-
dorcan Andes, Mt. Chlmborazo
awcd the primitive Indian poo
pies, doomed in their eyes as the
highest peak on earth. Likewise
were carly GcographcrS miSin-
formed, long regarding the noun
tain as the worlds lofticSt.
Then in 1920 Edward Whympcr
successfully attained Chimborazo'S
summit after many other attempts
to scale it had failed. Whympcl
was convinced that Chimborazo
was not inc worlds highest, but
only the highest in the Ecuadorean
Andes. Subsequently il was cS-
tabliShcd that other peaks were
higher, such as Mt. Aconcaugua
in Chile, Sahama in Bolivia, and
HuaSCan in Peru. At the same
time nov light was shed on the
massive EcuadOrcm SUBMITS OF
C0topaXi, Cayambc, and AntiSana.
The Indians named Chimborazo
from the designation, "Chimpu-
raza," or the mountain Of snow"
It has no crater and rises 1900
feet above its own table land of
Quito, pcrpctually capped with
heavy SHOWS. From almost any
point Of view 1t is imposing, its
base being covc,cd with forest up
to the snowlinc, above which the
pure white dome rises for 4
further 5000 feet. Some biologists
have dcduccd that it is hollow.
There are beds of lava and hot
springs at its base, confirming the
belief that the peak is an extinct
volcano.
Explorer Andre Roosevelt flew
over Chimborazo in December,
1886. The mountain is shown here
on an Ecuador stamp of 1903.
