November 10, 2014 In 2012 IMG introduced our exclusive “glamping†mobile safari as a way to provide our clients with the most authentic and enjoyable safari experience after their hard work on Kilimanjaro. The result? Our clients loved it! “The safari was excellent, and the first night in the tents was incredible. To camp in […]
October 16, 2014 A few weeks ago, we got a nice note from one of our recent Kili customers and we have to share it. We’ve had technical difficulties with the videos, but have include some of Josh’s great photos instead. Thanks for joining us on Kilimanjaro, Josh! From: Josh U. Sent: Tuesday, September 23, […]
September 22, 2014 Andy put everyone on airplanes headed home over the weekend and he’s off to Italy. It’s a wrap. All team members are heading back to their ‘normal’ schedules of family and work. On any IMG trip, the priorities remain the same – safety, success and enjoyment. Andy said this team did it […]
September 18, 2014 Andy and his team called in EARLY (my time) this morning from the Serengeti. Andy has led a lot of Kilimanjaro climbs and he’s been on the same number of safaris but he sounded extra excited this morning. Apparently, the short rains of the normal fall season have come a bit early […]
September 15, 2014 10 members on the summit early this morning, September 15. Well done, gang. Weather was good, everyone stayed healthy and strong. Pretty much a perfect day. Team should already have completed their descent to Mweka Camp at 10,000 ft. It’s a long descent but getting down minimizes chances so many potential problems […]
September 14, 2014 Team’s at Barafu, high camp. Midnight start tonight for the summit. All members are acclimatizing well, walking well, healthy and ready to summit Kilimanjaro. Weather remains quite good. Knock on wood – the trip’s been going about as smooth as possible. Phil Ershler
September 13, 2014 Andy Politz left us a voice mail at our office early this morning. Â Keep in mind that it’s 10 hours later on Kilimanjaro than out here at Mt. Rainier. Â News was that everyone’s in good form and spirit and that they were sitting on top of the Baranco Wall. Â In a couple […]
September 11, 2014 Woke up at 6 am to a satellite phone call from Andy Politz and the IMG team on Kilimanjaro. Hiked today from Machame Camp at 10000’ to Shira Camp at 12500’. All good, everyone did great and the weather’s been super. About all you can ask for, I guess. Shira Camp is […]
September 10, 2014 And they’re off!! The team is already at the Machame Camp as we make this blog post. Bridget, one of our climbers, sent us this group photo. A couple of flight delays on the way over, and a couple of delayed bags, but all arrived in time (both people and luggage) to […]
August 29, 2014 We periodically have customers request to speak with some of our past clients about their experiences with us. International Mountain Guides’ customers are notoriously happy to tell others about their trips. We’re happy to provide references as much as possible. When Kira inquired about joining us for a climb of Kilimanjaro and […]
