They're off!!!

The 2009 GVI Phoenix Charity Challenge started yesterday with Volcan Pacaya. This amazing volcano changes everyday but you can normally guarantee a good bit of smoke and some lava.

The challengers enjoyed a real treat yesterday with lots of lava and beautiful views. It is quite amazing standing in front of molten rock and can provide great photo opportunities. GVI's Latin America Regional Director Danny was so encapsulated he forgot to move and melted the soles from his shoes!! As I spoke to the guys this morning they were in Xela on the look out for a new pair.


Today the group will embark on Santa Maria which may be the most challenging of the volcanoes and promises some chilly/freezing conditions at the top. Good luck guys!
