Lying as a continuous chain of highland along the South American coast, the Andes are the longest exposed mountain range. Cayambe (18,996 ft) is the highest point along the Equator and the only point on the Equator with snow cover. Cotopaxi (19,347 ft) which means "Throne of Moon" is the second highest in Ecuador honored by the local Andean Indians as a sacred mountain.
