Paige Claassen on new Ecuador route
Ecuador is the eighth stop of Marmot’s Lead Now Tour, a global tour to inspire people through rock climbing and raise $10,000 a month for 11 different non-profit organizations.
While in Ecuador, the Lead Now team travels throughout the country, exploring volcanoes, crater lakes, local cuisine, and new projects along the way. Amidst rolling hills, low fog, and the hum of alpacas, the land feels a bit like the setting of a fairytale. Watch Paige Claassen make the first ascent of Middle Earth 5.13d, at 4,000 metres in Cajas National Park.
