A Little Snow At The Lava Tower

September 14, 2018

“All is well at Barranco Camp” is the report I received by satellite phone from IMG Guide Andy Polloczek.  The team had another great day on the trail despite the snow/grauple/rain that shortened their lunch break at the Lava Tower (14,500ft.) this afternoon.

The team powered through the hiccup in the weather and are currently enjoying clear skies and beautiful views of Kilimanjaro from Barranco Camp 13,000ft.

Tomorrow takes the team up the famous Barranco Wall and then over to Karanga Camp (13,000ft).
