On our way down the Mountain
Hi again everyone,
We didn’t delay at the top, it took a lot out of us to get there.
We got back to our previous night’s camp, slept for about 90 mins, then ate and packed up for the big descent.
As you can see from the tracker we make great progress this morning covering about 9km back to what will be our final camp on the mountain at about 12000 feet or 3700m.
Now at 7.30 pm local time, we are about to go to sleep in advance of a last early start to a hike of about 7 hours to bring us back to the park entrance.
Then it is back on a bus to return to Moshi.
You have no idea how much we are all looking forward to a shower. Everybody is in such great spirits after the achievements of early this morning.
But now on to that very inviting sleeping bag- more news from off the mountain tomorrow!
