pm. Hope you will reserve that date.
This is a relatively new location graciously provided by Leo Linder.
No need to respond if you will be attending -- just show up. There

Bob Loce will be sharing his Andean climbs in Ecuador,
South America. These climbs include: Pasochoa, Roku Pichincha,
Cayambe and Cotopaxi. Bob is a patent technical specialist at Datto
and a former research fellow at Xerox and PARC. He does most of his
mountaineering locally in the Adirondacks (in the wintertime), and
occasionally heads off to climb the big ones. Within hours of Quito
there are multiple opportunities for acclimatization climbs, such as Cayambe
and Cotopaxi. He will discuss his climbs and experiences with using
local guides.
