Mexico Volcanoes

Pico de Orizaba

Third highest peak in North America
Known in the local Nahuatl language as "the Smoking Mountain," Orizaba is a strenuous and rewarding summit. We climb via the Northern Route. This is a straightforward glacier climb with a challenging steep and sustained slope. From the top of Orizaba's snow covered dome you can see the Gulf of Mexico to the east and Ixta to the west.
