September 24, 2015 Our Kilimanjaro Team is making great progress. The excitement and challenge of the Barranco Wall was the target for today and everyone did fantastic. It always feels good to get up the wall and into the open area. A short trek later and the team arrived in Karanga Camp at 13,000 feet. […]
September 23, 2015 Craig called from Barranco Camp with good news from the team. All is well! (and it is a little chilly) It is a pretty good test for the Kilimanjaro Climbing Team today. They are up early and do a little bit of ascending. They take a gradual climb up to the Lava […]
September 22, 2015 Craig John checked in from a breezy but clear Shira Camp. All is well on Kilimanjaro, the team trekked together and had great views of Kilimanjaro today. It is right there! Breaking out of the forest is a great feeling. Today’s trek signified another climate zone crossing. From the tall trees of […]
September 21, 2015 Craig John checked in from Machame Camp at about 10,000 feet. It was a great day on the trail. After all of the duffle shuffles and preparations for the Kilimanjaro Climb, it is nice to stretch our legs. The check in procedure at the Park Entrance can be busy. When the entire […]

August 26, 2015 Just when you start to think the wildlife viewing was complete and you sit back and take a deep breath is the exact time that the Ngorongoro Crater likes to snap you back into excitement and make you think you missed something! Today the amount of flamingos on the lake and the […]
August 25, 2015 Dustin checked in from the Serengeti this evening to let us know that the team is doing fantastic and decided to go out for a balloon ride this morning. This trend seems to be catching on in the Serengeti with Dustin. We are working on getting a few photos of this event. […]
August 24, 2015 “I could do this every day.â€Â Dustin’s phone call check in for me this morning. Well, Dustin has had some good successes in Tanzania. Solid climbing and superb wildlife viewing as a reward for his hard work on the climb. We like it when guides check-in with good reports about where they […]
