The breach wall on Kilimanjaro.
Olivia called in from Barancco Camp this morning to relay a special hello to all the kids of the Kili climbers… A big “hello and I love you” to: Alexander, David, Emory, Elizabeth, Jack, Harrison, Windham, Katherine, Evans, Luke, Mary Ellis, and Madelyn!
All is well at camp. They made good time today and have a shorter day to Karanga Valley Camp tomorrow which they’re all looking forward to. The good news about tomorrow is they’ll cross the Breach Wall (a bit of pretty steep scrambling in a few places) and traverse below the Southern Glaciers. This is typically the favorite day on the approach, with great scenery and rugged hiking.
All is well…
