Includes Ecuador's 10 peaks over 5000m high. These 10 peaks are the ultimate mountaineering objectives in Ecuador. All except Tungurahua have glaciers. Note that Tungurahua and Sangay are currently active -- and too dangerous to summit. Perhaps when things calm down you can be one of the only to have stood at the top of all 10... but for now, hitting the Big 8 would be an incredible achievement.
