Kili Time
I'm currently in Tanzania preparing for my second Kilimanjaro climb in 3 weeks, then I have another 2 climbs before the end of October, Stu will also be joining me on the second climb, it will be his first ascent on Kili and he's very excitied.
All our climbs are on the Machame Route which can be done over 6 or 7 days.
The only thing I would say is Kilimanjaro is getting very busy these days i've never seen so many people on the Mountain.
I've spent the last week with friends helping out on a project building a free medical centre and orphange mainly for the local Massai but it's free to anyone who comes, The kids in the Orphanage are amazing there's a family of 4 children here at the momment who lost there parents to HIV but they seem so upbeat it's very sad to hear but great to see them so happy and being looked after so well, We will be running an event next summer to raise money for the charity so I will keep you posted.
Toubkal
Our winter Toubkal climbs are looking very busy this year with our January date now having a double departure.
Climbing Toubkal in the winter is a great mountaineering experience with very few people on the mountain, you don't need to be a roughty toughty mountaineer to climb during the winter months just warm clothes and a great sense of Adventure.
So keep that Adventurous spirit alive and see you on the mountian.
