Cyprian (left) and his twin brother Cornel (right) are always on BAI Kilimanjaro climbs.

By the afternoon of our second day we had climbed above the forest and reached the moorland life zone of Kili, with its beautiful Giant Senecios.

Betsy arrived at her tent at Barranco Camp after a long but beautiful day of hiking on Kilimanjaro.


After two days of hiking Nanette enjoyed a shower at 13,000 feet in the Berg Adventures Shower Tent

What a place for Greg to enjoy his birthday with his wife Nancy!

Time for a birthday celebration mountain style! Singing and dancing on Kilimanjaro is always a great way to celebrate another year! Happy Birthday Greg!!
