August 1, 2019 The Kili team had another great day on their safari! They saw LOTS of cats. Big ones. It really is amazing just how much wildlife you can see over 3 days, however, the elusive prize remains and that’s to see a black rhino. They’ll have to wait for their visit to Ngorongoro […]
July 31, 2019 Phunuru called in from the Serengeti today to confirm Day 1 of the safari was a huge success! Within two hours of arrival, they’d seen big cats, bigger zebras, and even bigger elephants! There is nothing quite like being guests in the home of these big animals. The landscape is as spectacular […]
July 30, 2019 One adventure ends and another begins. Probably a lesson in there somewhere. Phunuru and team are showered and fed and have turned their attention to celebrating. Celebrating successes is important, and this team has a lot to celebrate. 100% on top is a good start and Jeff’s 50 birthday ain’t bad, either. […]
July 29, 2019 Always nice to start off the week with a phone call from Africa saying that we had another 100% successful ascent of Kilimanjaro this morning. Congratulations, team! Phunuru called and was pretty pleased to let us know the team did well, everyone shook hands on the summit and that they were back […]
July 28, 2019 Team is in the batter’s box, ready to take a ‘swing’ at the summit. Weather is perfect and team is pretty much perfect. Phunuru is planning for a 1am departure. It’s a big day, and it can be quite cold early in the morning. We’ll be wishing them luck, but I […]
July 27, 2019 The IMG Kilimanjaro Team just wrapped up a fantastic day on their way to Karanga Camp. This is often the favorite part of the whole approach as the route climbs the famous Barranco Wall. The wall can appear intimidating for some when looking up from below, and it does require a bit […]
July 26, 2019 Another good day with a fit team and good weather. The hike from Shira to Baranco is a bit of a longer day but a good one, it goes up to the Lava Tower and then down to the camp itself. Karanga Camp is the objective for tomorrow and then it’s […]
July 25, 2019 Team is making good progress on Kilimanjaro. Strong folks and good weather makes for a sweet trip. That’s correct —- Phunuru is already back in Africa and is taking another IMG team up Kilimanjaro. Everyone arrived on schedule (more or less) with all their gear (more or less) but all got sorted […]
July 5, 2019 The team is wrapping up their trip to Tanzania. Yesterday was their second day in the Serengeti and today they visited the Ngorongoro Crater.  They sent so many great photos, it was hard to choose which ones to post. So we’re just going to post a bunch. They’re heading to bed now […]
July 4, 2019 The great news just continues to come in. Team flew to the Serengeti and saw most everything on their way to their safari camp. ‘Most everything’ included a tree climbing lion. es, there is such a thing and yes, it is a very rare sight. Imagine climbing Kilimanjaro and 48 hours later […]
