Ricardo Lugo

Ricar­do first began climb­ing moun­tains at the age of 18, and so dis­cov­ered his pas­sion for the moun­tains, cav­ing and the out­doors. Born in Mex­i­co City, he has worked for Hec­tor Ponce de Leon, since 2009, guid­ing in the Vol­ca­noes of Mex­i­co, the Cordillera Blan­ca in Peru, as well as on Kil­i­man­jaro in Africa. When climb­ing sea­son is over, you can find Ricar­do, also a pro­fes­sion­al caver, explor­ing, prospect­ing and devel­op­ing new projects all around Mex­i­co. Ricar­do likes to spend his free time trav­el­ling around the coun­try, moun­tain bik­ing, canyoneer­ing and div­ing. A cer­ti­fied Wilder­ness First Respon­der and ful­ly cer­ti­fied IFM­GA Guide, Ricar­do enjoys moun­tain guid­ing and shar­ing the won­ders of his beau­ti­ful home coun­try of Mexico.
