- Wāhi: Ecuador, Province of Cotopaxi, Quito;

Makemakeʻoe e hoʻokuʻu i kahi alahele kiʻi e hoʻolālāʻia ai nā lua pele nui, i uhiʻia me nā wāwae keʻokeʻo o ka hau a me ka hau, i hukiʻia? A laila, e leʻaleʻa iʻEkuatoa , a me ke alaloa oʻAmelika Pāmahana! ʻO ka māhele o kēia alakaʻi kaʻaʻokoʻa nui me kaʻoi aku ka maikaʻi ma kahi ākea laulā ma waena o nā pae mauna. I kēlā me kēia lā ua haʻalele nā kaʻa he mau kaukani mai Quito ma ka hema a ua holoholo i nā kuahiwi kiʻekiʻe o ka lani, aia i waena o lākou nā lua pele nui 9 o Ecuador. ʻO kēiaʻano aloha iʻikeʻia me ka lima māmā o ka mea hele kanakaʻo Alexander Humboldt, nāna iʻimi i nā lua pele Ecuadoria i ka makahiki 1802 a ua hoʻokūhāhāʻia e ka nani o kēia mau wahi.
Ke kakali nei nā kūwae kiʻekiʻe iāʻoe!
ʻO ka hoʻomaka o ke alanui o nā lua pele aia ma Quito pono'ī, aia ma ka hikina hikina o ka lua pele nuiʻo Pichincha. Ua kākauʻia ka hāʻule hope loa i ka makahiki 1999, akā naʻe,ʻaʻohe meaʻino, koe kahi'āpana lepo ma nā alanui,ʻaʻole i lawe mai. ʻO ka piʻiʻana i Pichincha he kaulana loa ia, no ka mea, mai Quito i ka lua pele hiki ke loaʻa iāʻoe ma ka hoʻohanaʻana i ke kuamoke kiʻekiʻe loa o ka honua - Teleferico. Ma ka haʻaleleʻana mai Quito ma ke alaloa i ke kūkulu hema, ma nāʻaoʻao eʻikeʻoe i nā piko o nā lua pele o Antisan , Cotopaxi a me Ileniz Sur. ʻAʻole kokoke i ka hopena he loko maikaʻi loaʻo Kilotoa. ʻO Cotopaxi kekahi o nā lua pele kaulana a kaulana iʻEkuatoa, piʻiʻia e kekahi e hiki ke lawe i 5 mau hola. Ma kaʻaoʻao hema - he lua pele nuiʻo Sangai, nona ka inoa i kapaʻiaʻo "scare". ʻO kēia ka lua pele nāna e hana nei no nā makahiki i hala aku nei. Ua kākauʻia ka hāʻule hope loa i ka makahiki 2006-2007. Ma hope o ia - ka lua peleʻo Tungurahua, kahi mana iʻoi aku ka mana i ka punawai o 2016. I ka mea kupaianaha, me kaʻoihana lua pele e like me kēia,ʻo ka'āpana ma ka Volcanoes Avenue kahi i nui loaʻia, uaʻike nā kānaka i ka huhū o luna e like me keʻano. ʻO kekahi mea nui ma waena o nā lua pele,ʻo Chimborazo , he kiʻekiʻe kona kiʻekiʻe a hiki i 6300 m (e like me nā kumuhana likeʻole) aʻo ia ke kiʻekiʻe kiʻekiʻe loa oʻEkuatoa . Ma kona wāwae, aia ka muliwai Guayas, ke kahawai wai nui, ka hōʻailona o ka'āina.
