Kilimanjaro Expedition Dispatches
Berg Adventures International Kilimanjaro Climb & Safari
Rongai Route, July 23 –August 5th, 2010
Canadians Andrea Richardson and Elizabeth Dubois, share the ultimate experience on Africa’s greatest mountain, Kilimanjaro. They will be climbing on the forgotten north side of Kilimanjaro, the drier side of the mountain, as they traverse the Rongai route which offers a direct ascent route and shorter hiking days. It is an exceptionally beautiful route with a remote feel from the bottom all the way to high camp.
Join these women as they trek through the unique landscape of Kilimanjaro and then head towards the Serengeti for an unforgettable Safari experience. We will send daily dispatches with insight into how they are doing and to hear all about their adventure. Stay tuned!
