"After the first glass, you see things as you wish they were. After the second, you see things as they are not. Finally, you see things as they really are, which is the most horrible thing in the world."

Route Climbed: Complete Traverse Date Climbed: January 1, 2002Did the complete traverse of the crater rim with Juan Valderrama. We took a rope and an abundance of rock gear but ended up not using any of it. The climbing was outstanding (mostly class 4 with a few moves of easy class 5) and we were able to complete the route in about 6 hours. We both agree that this was our best climb in Mexico.
