Team Hazah! climbs to Karanga Camp

 

Hello Everyone,

Today was another fantastic day on Kili with great weather and a great team!  We’ve got a few minor altitude symptoms amongst the group but they all stayed strong and pushed through the Baranco Wall all the way here to Karanga camp.  As usual we waited until all groups left and passed through the Baranco wall before we departed camp and we had the trail all to ourselves the entire day with only a few porters passing us.  Once we arrived to camp we had a big lunch and then most of the team rested and napped.  We are getting close to touching the top!  Tomorrow we head to Kosovo camp at 15,800ft, where we will set off for the summit early the next morning.  We are all getting excited!

Thanks for following along,

Ben Jones
