Our thoughts and prayers are with everyone in Ecuador. Please use this thread to let the group know that you are okay. If possible, give an update on the conditions in your area (road closures, airport closures/re-openings, emergency services, etc). Also, if you are in need of help of any kind, share that with the group. If you can help someone, please do.

here in Cuenca we felt plenty of shaking, but there doesn't appear to have been major damage, etc. No emergency were out right after so assuming no major injuries or anything like that.
The coastal regions, especially nearest the epicenter...Manta, Perdinales, etc got hit HARD and are in a mess, death toll is rising, last I heard it was about 80
