Chimborazo
The peak of Chimborazo is the farthest point from the center of the Earth. This is due to the Earth bulging out at the equator and Chimborazo being located just one degree south of the equator. Mount Everest is 28° north of the equator. Thus Chimborazo is 2.1 kilometres farther from the Earth's center than Everest. Chimborazo is 73.5 metres higher than the highest mountain in North America. Chimborazo is often associated with the nearby volcano Cotopaxi, although the two volcanoes have completely different structures.
Rodrigo Jordan
On May 15, 1992, he led the first South American group who reached the peak of Everest (8,848 m / 29,029 ft), the highest mountain in the world. This experience was vital on his professional development, since the idea of creating Vertical S.A. was born there. The route they took was on the east face, known as the Kangshung face – that given its extreme difficulty, it has only been climbed 4 times as of 2018.
