The Mexican Alps?
Sometimes a few pictures are better than a bunch of words…
On Saturday morning I made a direct climb of Nevado de Toluca in its current alpine conditions. I believe most of the mountain’s couloirs and arêtes haven’t been so snowed (and icy) for 15 years at least. My time from car to summit: 3 hours 44 minutes, 6 hours 12 minutes for the full roundtrip.
I made a brief stop for a quick lunch at the crater’s lip after coming down from the summit. The weather was perfect, the day beautiful and the views awesome! I felt like I was having a day out in the French Alps but, fortunately, this was Mexico
