Mount Kilimanjaro Expedition 2012

We did it! We successfully summitted Kilimanjaro after a murderous climb of 7 hours, the night after one of the worst blizzards I have ever experienced.

Join me now as I remember the 7 day climb up the Machame route that led us to the roof of Africa, beautiful Mount Kilimanjaro.
