Barafu Camp (15,000 feet) on Kilimanjaro (Eric Simonson)
George and Jenni called from Karanga Camp at 13,000 ft to report that the team was doing well. Today they will move up to Barafu Camp (15,000 ft) and prepare to climb to the summit tomorrow. After reaching the Camp and having a meal, the plan calls for getting off the feet this afternoon and resting, followed by an evening meal and another rest. Then, they will be up early, shooting to be walking around midnight for the trek to Uhuru Peak. So far so good!
