The fastest mountaineering expedition in show business people! OWA owner James Faerber knows better than anyone that with a busy schedule and responsibilities, you don’t have time to take off for a full-blown expedition. So he developed this trip as a compact version of our Mexico Volcanoes trip. It is a Thursday to Sunday blitz to summit Ixta, an 18000 foot volcano in Mexico. Affectionately known as the “Ixta headache” trip by our guides, time to acclimate is limited, so show up in shape and with plenty of Aspirin!
