IMG Ecuador Team Returns to Quito

Jan 21, 2023 – IMG Senior Guide Porter McMichael called to inform us that the team has returned safely back to Quito. The team was unable to summit due to avalanche conditions. They climbed to about 19,000ft this morning before being forced to make the call to return back to the lower mountain. Despite the challenging conditions, the team enjoyed clear views and good weather and were glad to make an attempt.
