Kilimanjaro: Grom & Team Ready for Summit Bid

Hello again everyone: After a good night's rest and a short hike up to 15,000 feet we’ve finally arrived at our high camp. Today was mostly sunny with great views of Kilimanjaro and our intended route for tomorrow’s climb. The team has just wrapped up lunch and discussed in great detail the plan for tomorrow’s climb. Everyone knows what what we’ll be wearing, what will be in the pack, as well as the schedule. Our game plan will be to wake at 11pm and have a quick breakfast at 11:30, then hopefully hit the trail right at midnight. The team has been doing great thus far and I’m expecting us to reach the summit in seven to eight hours if things go according to plan. Also to note! There have been several rounds of trivia with the winner getting a chance to make a satellite phone call from the summit. So everyone back home please keep your phones handy and if you receive a call from a strange number please answer. We are seven hours ahead of the east coast time zone, so a 7:00 am arrival at the summit will mean a midnight phone call. Wish us luck! RMI Guide Casey Grom and the Kili crew
