I just came accross this tragic news. The article is in French - 5 climbers died on one of the volcanoes in Ecuador. 2 Americans, 1 Canadian and 2 guides. I am wondering if anyone has more information on this. I can't find more information anywhere. http://lcn.canoe.ca/...20090904-081411.html

it said that the anchor failed after or when the walls of the volcano collapsed. my guess is this is referring to a cornice collapse.-just a guess. tragic. the canadian guy was on his honeymoon. his wife, the lone survivor has serious injuries.
