If we looked down, we could see the clouds below us. The view was majestic. After taking in the views, we headed back down to basecamp for breakfast. We napped after breakfast and then started hiking all the way back down to the entrance of the park. We arrived at the park entrance around 5pm that evening.
The hike to the top of Chirripó was an experience I’ll remember forever. It was a difficult challenge but it was fun to do it with two best friends. I’m hoping to continue doing difficult hikes across the world in the future!
I want to encourage you to hike to the top of your own personal "Mt. Chirripó", whatever your goals may be! Above all, I hope you get the chance to travel and work/study abroad some day, as it will surely change you life as it did mine!
