What Comes, Comes… Orizaba for Oma and Beyond
Three words. One comma. A philosophy of life. Oma’s favourite advice. And…the words I am taking solace in to cope with the disappointment that ice conditions on El Pico de Orizaba forced us to abandon our summit bid on Mexico’s … Continue reading

Mexican Book Ends
I remember my first arrival in Mexico City more vividly perhaps than any other expedition start. I was 21, spoke no Spanish, and arrived three days earlier than the rest of my climbing group. The plane was several hours late … Continue reading
