Viewing Post for: Kilimanjaro Climb 2014

Date: Tuesday, January 21. 6:00 PM
Location: Mti Mkubwa, Big Tree Camp. 9,100 feet.

Jambo. Mambo. poa. Today everything is poa. The trail is in better shape then the road is. Some serious 4 wheeling to the start of the trail. We survived the ride. Now the mountain will be nothing. Dodged some flying monkey poop. Fireball flowers. Did not lose Yusuf. Beautiful bird sounds. Busy camp. Arrived before dark. All doing well. Do we give all the music instruments to the porters tonight to start a band or tomorrow? Stay tuned for more mountain drama.

Hey Ranger, You are certainly earning your nickname on this trip. How does that harmonica sound in the high altitudes?

Hi Guys, You are all looking great after a day of hiking the mountain! Looks like your weather has been clear. You are probably heading into the moorland tomorrow. You are sleeping as I write; you will be well rested and ready for day 2! Enjoy the change in landscape. Drink lots of maji!!

Harry - you are missing all the fun back here in the office...who is Yusuf? I'm guessing the guy with the green shirt on.
