Kilimanjaro: Seth & Team at Barranco Camp
Posted by: Seth Waterfall | August 04, 2012
Categories: *Expedition Dispatches *Kilimanjaro
Elevation: 15,200'
Hi there! This is the Kilimanjaro team checking in from our high point today at 15,200 ft. All is well on the trail. The altitude is kicking in but we’re all adapting. This afternoon we are going to drop back down a few thousand feet to Barranco Camp. Tomorrow we will tackle the steepest portion of our trek; the Barranco Wall.

Kilimanjaro: Tucker & Team enjoy their last day in Africa
Posted by: Mark Tucker | August 03, 2012
Categories: *Expedition Dispatches *Kilimanjaro
We had a nice drive out of the park today as many elephants stole the show. We made a stop for more shopping and a visit to an orphanage. We had a last great meal with some day rooms to make sure no dust is brought back state side. It is nice when things go like clockwork the whole trip through. No rain or snow on the big hill this time, but we were ready. We had a nice view of the mountain at sunset on our way to the airport.
What a pleasure working with this diverse group these last couple of weeks.They all climbed with great style. Keeping me thrilled with this life I lead.
Look forward to meeting up with them again!

Kilimanjaro: Seth & Team Hiking Above the Clouds
Posted by: Seth Waterfall | August 03, 2012
Categories: *Expedition Dispatches *Kilimanjaro
Elevation: 12,200'
We are on the trail to Shira Plateau, our second camp on Kilimanjaro. Last night was calm and clear with a full moon and today we’ve been above the clouds all morning. The trail is busy with climbers from all over the world but our team was ready to go early this morning so we’re ahead of the pack. We got our first view of the upper mountain today and we’re all suitably impressed.

Kilimanjaro: Seth & Team Begin Climb

Elevation: 9,800'
Jambo!
I am checking in from Machame Camp at 9,800’, our first camp on Kilimanjaro. We arrived about two hours ago and have been relaxing in our dining tent. The hike today was very smooth as we got a nice early start and didn’t have any delays at the Machame Gate (5,990’), our entrance to Kilimanjaro National Park. We were in the clouds all day and that kept the temps cool and perfect for walking. It was a great start to the trip!

Kilimanjaro: Seth & Team Prepare for Kilimanjaro

Greetings from the Dik Dik Hotel in Arusha, Tanzania.
Today was our fist full day together as a team. We started the day with a leisurely breakfast, a discussion of the trip itinerary and then a gear check. After lunch most of the team went into Arusha to do some shopping and sight seeing. Now we have finished dinner and are getting ready for an early departure for Kilimanjaro. We’ll check in again from our first camp tomorrow.

Kilimanjaro: Tucker & Team Visit Masai Village
Posted by: Mark Tucker | August 01, 2012
Categories: *Expedition Dispatches *Kilimanjaro
After a glorious day game viewing in the Ngorongoro crater, the team made a stop by a Masai village.
We received the full tour and were able to help support the local economy. These folk are tough. Who is to say what life you live is better than one or another, I can sure tell you it is a different sort out here in the bush than most of the USA.
Our plan is to pack up in the morning and drive about an hour and a half to our next park, Tarangire National Park. We will be on the look out for the elusive leopard. Our safari staff has promised us a barbecue in the bush and we are looking forward to that. We end up in a tented camp tomorrow night and I can tell you I know tents and this is as far from any tent I ever stay in. Lets just say a king sized bed, toilet and shower are not the norm after I pitch a tent.
Once again the word is out….......Roughing it in Africa is all relative.
