\n\t\t\t\tKili from Shira Camp (Dustin Balderach)\n\t\t\t\t<\/dd><\/dl>
\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n <\/p>\n
IMG Senior Guide, Max Bunce, just checked in from Shira Camp on Kili at about 12,600 feet. I love this day of the hike. After a couple hours of steep hiking leaving Machame Camp you break out of the forest and get your first real good view of the mountain. You see super interesting flora. And the hiking is a ton of fun too. A little steep in places, but a good, fun hike. An all-around terrific day by any standard. This afternoon (Tanzanian time) the group got to relax at camp and gaze at the gorgeous views. Kili is staring you right in the face on one side and Mt. Meru (Kili\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s little sister and the second highest peak in Tanzania) is looking at you from the other side. I love it at Shira Camp. Tomorrow they head to Barranco Camp. They will spend the morning staring right at Kili as they hike up to Lava Tower before dropping back down to Barranco Camp. A great day for acclimatizing and one of my favorites!<\/p>\n
