En el Nevado de Toluca (Slide 1969)

Mi papa me llevo al Nevado de Toluca
El Nevado
Primera vez que use spikes y piolet.
Fuimos en su VW por la carretera hasta las lagunas en el crater. De ahi subimos hasta el filo del crater, donde hay unas vistas impresionantes. No llegamos a la parte mas alta del Nevado.
Al regreso, bajando en la carretera del Nevado, un camion de escuela (a quien se le ocurre!) quedo mitad colgando en la ladera y mitad bloqueando la carretera. Ya se hacia tarde y empezo a nevar. Afortunadmente el VW pudo pasar a empujones saliendose un poco del camino. Los otros autos que estaban ahi, no tenian la altura que tiene el VW y ahi se quedaron.

My dad took me to Nevado de Toluca
Nevado_de_Toluca or Xinantécatl
This was the first time I used crampons and ice axe.
We took his VW on the road to the lakes in the crater. From there we climbed to the edge of the crater, where the views are impressive. We didn't reach the summit of Nevado.
On the way back, a school bus, driving on the mountain road (idiots!) ended up half hanging of the road and half blocking the road. It was getting late and started to snow. Fortunately the VW could be pushed around the bus, going off road a bit, and got through. The other cars, withouth the high clearance of a VW had to stay there.
