Four climbers died in Mexico as a result of an accident while ascending the current volcano of Piko de-orisab (5675 m).
This was reported by the Puel Civil Defense Department.
Climbists often become victims of accidents during the ascent of the Piko de Irisaba.
In 2015, 3 people who died in an avalanche in 1959 found the search and rescue units.
In 2017, an American died in Piko de Irisaba.
The US Embassy in Mexico City announced in 2018 about the death of an employee of the diplomatic mission when climbing the mountain.
