Sunday, March 13


Team ascending toward Mawenzi.

Day 4 on the mountain saw us ascend another 2,000 vertical feet from our third camp to Mawenzi Tarn Hut at 14,100 feet. This camp, my favorite on Kilimanjaro, is below Mawenzi- one of Kili’s three summits. There is a pond near the campsite, which has been in the clouds most of the day. Elaine and Bob passed their previous personal highs (both around 12,200 feet), as we ascended toward the jagged ridgeline of Mawenzi. Everyone is doing well in the increasingly thinning air.
