IMG guide Sheldon Kerr reports that the Kili team had a good day today. After a team meeting to get things rolling, they headed into the town of Moshi to check out the local scene. They walked around town a bit, visited the market, and stopped off at the Kilimanjaro Porter Assistance Project office, before heading back to the hotel for a late lunch and putting the finishing touches on gear packing. Everyone is set, the weather is good, and it’s time to go climbing! Tomorrow morning they load up the Land Rovers for the steep road up to the Machame Gate where they will hit the trail.
