Now that's really cool!...I don't know how I missed this fact because I'm always sucking up earth-y, geology sorta info. Reading up on Chimborazo right now and says it can be challenging. Being what it is makes it quite a prize! The pics I'm seeing show it's pretty impressive. I'll look for some youtube vids later. God I love hills and mountains...not really been up anything over 1500-2000 ft. *heavy sigh* I'm forever exploring mountainous terrain on Google maps!
