Follow our first January Kilimanjaro Climbers as they make their way to the summit.
We got word from IMG Guide Justin Merle yesterday who reported that the team had a great day en route to Barranco Camp at 13,000. Some of the team checked out the lava tower while others enjoyed a little extra time in camp.
Today they crossed the Breach Wall which entails a bit of pretty steep scrambling in a few places, and a traverse below the Southern Glaciers. For most climbers this is one of best days of the climb. They’ll camp at at Karanga Valley tonight.
You can follow their progress via the SPOT Tracker that Justin is carrying.
That’s all for now.
