Kili Team Reaches Barranco Camp

Feb 17, 2023 – Phunuru Sherpa reports the IMG Kili team had a great acclimatization day, ascending to 14,500 feet at Lava Tower, then dropping back to 13,000 feet at Barancco Camp.  Climb high, sleep low!  Tonight the stars in the Southern Sky will rise above the lights of Moshi below, while the immense Breach Wall towers above them.
