Kilimanjaro Summit




Tricia and I both made the summit of Kilimanjaro on Saturday AM after a 5:00 AM start from last base camp near the smaller glaciers. 15 degrees F with fairly strong winds but all went well. We are down and safe, will have lots of pics for those interested. Attached a few from the last day. Seven days in a tent with all but one night being below freezing. Still well worth it with all the views as you hike through 6 different climate zones from tropical forest to Arctic zone.

Love to all,
Pete
