Today was our last day on the Lemosho Route. We had an amazing time climbing Kilimanjaro, and today was a day of celebration. We had a tipping ceremony on the mountain, and this proved to be awkward when our guide read all the tip numbers out loud for the whole crew to hear.

Charlie and I barely slept at Crater Camp, and our camp manager was vomiting all night from altitude sickness. We had a small breakfast in the morning and made our way back up to the summit, which was nice and clear! After that, we made the long trip down to Millenium Camp in the rain.

Today we summitted Kilimanjaro and then made our way down to Crater Camp. We are really feeling the effects of altitude, and Charlie had to rest in the tent while I explored the crater and glaciers with Raymond and Arden. It was a cold night, and we both had headaches and couldn't sleep, but it was an experience that was totally worth it!

Today was another short day, making our way from Karanga Valley Camp to Barafu Camp. We were above the clouds for a bit, and we are now anticipating summit day tomorrow!

Today we climbed up the Barranco Wall. It was a short day, and we arrived at Karanga Valley Camp before lunchtime!

Today we hiked up to Lava Tower for acclimation, and then made our way down to the beautiful Barranco Camp.

Today we broke out of the jungle and got a beautiful view of Kilimanjaro. My asthma acted up on me a little bit, but we are still doing great.

Our first day on the Lemosho Route was an easy day. We walked through the jungle and spent the night at Big Tree Camp. Charlie and I both have traveler's diarrhea, but we're doing okay so far.
