Kilimanjaro: Grom & Team Move to Shira Plateau Camp

Elevation: 12,570'

Hello again Everyone It’s been a bit cloudy the last few days, but the team awoke to beautifully clear skies and views of Kilimanjaro looming above us. We started our day with fresh fruits, eggs, porridge and plenty of coffee, before setting off on our second day. The trail out of camp slowly ascends through the last remaining trees and makes its way along a rocky ridge that climbs up onto the Shira Plateau. We hiked a little more that four hours to reach our next camp arriving shortly before the clouds returned and a light drizzle started. Everyone enjoyed the warmth of the sun and the views of the valleys below as we continued slowly moving upward. We are currently relaxing in our camp enjoying good conversations and stories from team members. RMI Guide Casey Grom and the Kili crew!

Kilimanjaro: Grom & Team Leave Comforts, Head for the Mountain

Posted by:

Categories: Expedition Dispatches Kilimanjaro

Tuesday, September 4, 2018 Hello Everyone - We awoke early today and left behind the comforts of our beautiful lodge and have headed to the mountain towards the start of the climb. Starting shortly before 8am we drove along the rural country side for two hours to reach the Kilimanjaro National Park entrance. Most of the area surrounding Kilimanjaro has been cultivated and primarily used for coffee production and for a variety of other agriculture needs, but there are still some areas that have been untouched and resemble more of a savanna that Tanzania is known for. The base of Kilimanjaro is more forested and resembles a jungle or cloud forest. Traditionally it supports a large part of the banana production for this area. Once at the gate we had all of our gear weighed and divided into loads for our porters to carry before hitting the trail. Once everything was in order we started our climb slowly making our way up the winding trail. The team hiked for a little over 5 hours to reach our camp for the night. Everyone did great and enjoyed finally getting some much needed exercise. After settling in the team was served a nice warm meal and then headed off to bed for a nice full night of rest. RMI Guide Casey Grom

Kilimanjaro: Grom & Team Meet at the Arumeru Lodge in Tanzania

Posted by:

Jambo everyone back home. Casey Grom here checking in with RMI's Kilimanjaro Climb. All is well here in Tanzania and most of the team arrived late last night after some very long flights. It was a short and uneventful ride to our Lodge that is nestled in between Arusha and Moshi and not so far from the base of Kilimanjaro. The team had a quick but wonderful dinner and headed for bed as the time change has us all feeling just a little off and we were a little tired after all the traveling. We had a leisurely morning and had our first official meeting at 10 where we did a round of introductions and then discussed the program for the coming days ahead. We spent the remainder of the day getting our gear packed up, exploring the grounds of our Lodge, which is incredibly peaceful and has monkeys and Dik Dik running around. See for yourself. We wrapped up the evening with another delicious meal and plenty of friendly conversations. Everyone is doing well and excited to hit the trail tomorrow and get a little bit of exercise. RMI Guide Casey Grom and the Kili crew!
