Kilimanjaro: Tucker & Team at Barafu Readying for Summit
Posted by: Mark Tucker | July 28, 2012
Categories: *Expedition Dispatches *Kilimanjaro
Elevation: 15,000'
Mark Tucker checking in from High Camp, Kilimanjaro. It is very breezy but hopefully that will change. We are in clear skies. We have a sea of clouds below us. The route looks like it’s in pretty good shape. May need a little bit of luck with the weather. The team is all together up here. And you know, we’re doing okay. There is the typical this, that and the other thing, but so far so good. So we got our fingers crossed and we have a great group of support team with our local staffing and an early, early dinner. The sun is just setting or we’re gonna crawl into the tents for a 5-hour nap and then we’re gonna hop on up and get goin’. Hopefully the next call will be from the summit, if I get the chance. So we will be checking in sooner than later. Thanks for checking in with us as well.
