The Wharton Kilimanjaro Expedition team has safely reached the Barafu High Camp. They'll catch a bit of rest this evening and then leave for the summit push at midnight! The group will have their first snow climb of the expedition, as Mt. Kilimanjaro is sporting true snow for the first time in two years.
The summit push will begin with a late night scramble along a rock rib to Stella Point. After traversing the crater's rim, the team will find themselves on Africa’s highest point (19,341 feet)! Hopefully we'll have photos from Dan and the team once they descend back to Barafu High Camp. We're wishing them safe travels and a successful summit day!
