Hi there. We're having a great day on Kilimanjaro. The weather is perfect and everyone is doing great. We went up to the Lava Tower (elev. 14,900') and now we're dropping down to camp (12,800'). Here's a pic from the trail! RMI Guide Seth Waterfall

I see that you are going up and down. No wonder it will take time to get to the top. I am enjoying the blog/emails.
