Big day on Iliniza Norte! This was my second attempt in two days after getting turned around the day before due to a ton of snow starting even below the refugio. Legs were a bit tired but made good time going up the road in 52' to the Virgen parking lot, then 51' to the refugio, a 2'21 break, and then 56' to the summit. Felt great on the descent and had plenty of energy left to run the road section down in 30' (3'38/km).

Huge thanks to Scott Penfield, Rachel Boim, and Conor Sleith for support on the mountain and in general. Great squad. Great day.
