Kilimanjaro: Grom & Team Are Prepared for Their Summit Day

Jambo amigos! Well we’ve finally arrived at our high camp, after a good night's rest and a short hike up to 15,000ft. It was mostly sunny all day with great views of Kili and our climbing route for tomorrow. The team is doing great and feeling well at this new altitude which is a good sign for things ahead. We’ve just wrapped up lunch and discussed in great detail the plan for tomorrow’s climb. Everyone knows what we’ll be wearing and 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. I’m expecting the team to reach the summit in seven hours or so if things go according to plan, and if the weather is in our favor. The team is planning on making satellite phone calls from the summit to loved ones back home. So if you have a loved one with us please keep your phones handy and if you receive a call from a strange number please answer. Wish us luck! RMI Guide Casey Grom and the summit bound Kili crew
