Kilimanjaro Day 5

Barafu Camp to Summit. The day starts at Midnight. Eric and I rummage in the dark tent to find our summit kit and head up the mountain. The stars are all we can see through the dark hours of the morning until the celestial beams warm the horizon and the barren landscape livens up around us. The rim of the crater bears a strong wind and we push our way around to the true summit, Uhuru Peak by 8am. Returning to Barafu Camp, we enjoy a warm meal and a nap, glowing in our summit success.
