Carrel desks are most often found in academic libraries. Most carrel desks are rectangular in shape. Felice Giordano hired Carrel as a guide. Sometimes the seat is integrated with the carrel desk. On the advice of his close friend [[Alexis Carrel]], he cancelled the trip. It is not certain how Carrel obtained his anomalous results. Meanwhile Carrel and six other Italian guides also began their ascent of the Italian ridge. The Carrel Hut can be reached by car from Riobamba, Ambato or Guaranda. From 1902, Carrel performed transplant experiments on dogs. Very soon afterwards Carrel and Bich were finally on the top.
