ENGLISH PICO DE ORIZABA


Mount Citlaltépetl, better know as Pico de Orizaba is the highest mountain in
México, At 5626 meters, is an inactive volcano located in the territorial limits
of states of Puebla and Veracruz. Many people come to México every year to
go hiking and climb Pico de Orizaba. The people who have had more
experience climbing said that first the beginners climb Iztaccíhuatl because it´s
not that high. On the other hand the climatic characteristics of the Citlaltépetl
and the Sierra Madre Oriental are quite varied, mainly due to the altitude and
the slope. The predominant climatic types are: humid temperate, subhumid
temperate and cold. The Pico de Orizaba is an important wonder of nature
because the glacier system is of vital importance to the communities
surrounding the volcano because the moderate and natural melting of the
volcanoes allows the resupply of the springs and wells in the area.
