Why climb with Berg Adventures

Strohm Family Lemosho Traverse and Safari Dispatch

June 27, 2011 – First Day on the Mountain

Hello, this is Eric calling from the Londrossi Gates – the entrance to Kilimanjaro National Park. We will drive another 30 to 45 minutes and then we will begin our trek at the Lemosho Glades. Scott and Brennen are doing well and are very excited for their climb. Their luggage was delayed by a day, but luckily it arrived last night and we were able to pack up and start our climb today as scheduled. This afternoon we will walk to Big Tree Camp where we will spend the night at 9,200ft/2,804m.

Follow along as we climb higher on the mountain.
