Mount Kilimanjaro Cybercasts
The Winter Kilimanjaro Season Ends on A High!
Hi everyone,
That’s a wrap for our 2024/25 Winter Kilimanjaro season.
Martin, Sabine and I, along with our amazing Kili crew had a fantastic week together on Africa’s highest peak. My thanks to everyone for a special week enjoying the rigors and beauty of the mountain.
I’ll be back in late June to launch our 2025 Summer Kili season.
Cheers
Eric Murphy
The Spring Season Comes to a Close
It’s a wrap! Just like that, the climbers from our first Carstensz Pyramid expedition in 7 years have made their way back home. Thank you for following along, and we look forward to providing updates from our October expeditions.

Carstensz Pyramid Expedition Returns Home
Hello Everyone,
The entire team Bintang is now out of Basecamp and on our way to Bali. We have just landed in Timika and have one more flight to Bali this evening. Some members have already left Bali that arrived yesterday and others will be flying home tonight. I will update one more time with some photos.
Thanks for following along on this great adventure!
Ben
Note from the Alpine Ascents Office:
As our team was preparing to depart from basecamp, we became aware of an incident involving another group on the mountain. Unfortunately, two climbers from that group lost their lives after getting caught in severe weather overnight. Three others were rescued by a team of guides from basecamp, including our lead guide Ben Jones. Our thoughts are with the families of those who were lost, and we extend our deepest condolences to their loved ones.
Carstensz Team in Base Camp after Summit!
Hello Everyone,
Team Bintang is doing well here in Basecamp again today. We woke up to clouds and rain so no flights again today. We are hoping tomorrow looks good! The team is staying positive but of course everyone is ready to get out to Timika and Bali soon. We have everything we need right now though and are having fun. Thank you for following our cybercast.
