Dustin checked in from Barranco Camp at 13,000’. He has a very fit team and they are all trekking very well.
This is a longer day but one of the more scenic days of the climb. The day starts with a gradual climb up to the Lava Tower. Pole Pole (slowly slowly)  is the name of the game as you head up hill. After the Lava Tower you cruise downhill into camp.

The team pulled into camp and had some tea and caramel popcorn. Nice treat after 6 hours on the trail.
Tomorrow, the Barranco Wall!
