August 10, 2012 – Off to the Mountain!

An excited team was off to the mountain this morning.

Aasha, Indersarat and their daughter Tejashree are ready to go!

The bags are ready to go from the hotel to the mountain too!

Loading up for the three hour drive to the Western edge of Kilimanjaro where we will begin our traverse of the mountain.

Indersarat packed and ready to roll!

We were met at the trailhead by a lively crew and the singing started almost immediately!

Our chef was ready and waiting.

Our first lunch. Not a bad way to start off…

Getting our boots and gaiters ready.

Hitting the trail. We are off on a great adventure!
