Kilimanjaro Expedition Dispatch

June 27, 2015 – Up the Barranco Wall We Go!

Hi this is William, climbing Mount Kilimanjaro with Berg Adventures.

It was our 6th day and it was a great day.

We went down from our camp. We lost a few meters today. We went from 4,900 m to 4,000m where we are today. But it was an awesome day. Lots of downhill, lots of uphill.

We went up the Barranco wall. Which was a bit of scrambling and was really fun using your hands. And then tomorrow we are climbing up to high camp which is 4,800m. And year, we are looking forward to that!

We are at our camp today. It is a pretty big camp with lots of tents at Karanga camp. Thank you!

Listen to William's call

Hi it's Barbara, I'm still with William. He's going really, really fast but by the end of the day i catch up to him. I think we have decided he is going twice as fast as i am. But that's okay I'm over twice as old as he is. So it's all good.

Everything is wonderful. Bye!
