In February I went to Ecuador to hike the volcano Cotopaxi, Ecuador's most famous mountain, known to the Quechua as the Neck of the Moon. It is located in the highlands within the Ecuadorian Andes it stands at 19,347 feet. I spent a few days prior to the summit hiking other nearby mountains in and around Cotopaxi National Park.

This was a major climb through many different trails, terrain and weather. So many beautiful images. Rugged, rocky, but also grassy and wide open. Colorful and harsh. Many contrasts. "Such as any adventure" This locale and hike, your video, will be on my mind. Congratulations on doing this. Wow you really are skilled and talented at filming. As usual, I'm stunned by how many places on the planet you have fully experienced.

Ah into Humboldt's footsteps and the rarified air....."The first European to attempt an ascent of Cotopaxi was Alexander von Humboldt in 1802. He failed to reach the top and pronounced the mountain unclimbable."

I was there in Mid January 2024. We had the same conditions climbing to the base camp. They did not allow us to continue to the glacier due to high winds and almost 0 visibility. Still, it was worth setting my personal record of 16,000 feet MSL. I highly recommend the Secret Garden Hostel. It is a beautiful setting that features many venues for socializing and watching the clouds pass by Cotopaxi.

Great job Alice! You did awesome in tough weather conditions! Congratulations! I got some wind and snow on my Cotopaxi summit day, but it cleared up when we are at the summit. It's a beautiful mountain! Just recently discovered your RU-vid channel and Instagram. Started watching some of your past RU-vid videos and looking at your Instagram posts. Looking forward to following your future adventures!

@@AliceFordAdventures Yes, that's the way it goes sometimes in the mountains. Sorry about your cell phone on Longs Peak. When I was coming down from the summit of Longs Peak after the Keyhole section I took a short break on a large flat boulder and a big wind gust came out of nowhere and knocked me flat to the ground. Really enjoyed your Longs Peak video too.
