Misery at 11,000 ft

After a 7 hour hike up Volcan Acatenango, we were ready to get a fire started to warm up. However, after several hours and attempting everything from tuna oil and Doritos to toilet paper and wood chips, we were unable to get a fire started. We ended up sleeping in the freezing cold in the middle of a downpour that lasted for the rest of the night.
