IMG guide Eben Reckord reported by sat phone that 100% of the team reached Uhuru Peak, the top of Africa. Now, they are on their way back down from the summit, with the goal being to reach the Mweka Camp (about 11,000 feet, at the edge of the forest). Everyone will feel better when they get down to the thicker air (plus, they can buy cokes and beer at Mweka)!
