Feb7: A successful summit for everyone! The group made it to the summit around 6:30 this morning, just in time for sunrise. They are all doing well and feeling good. After spending time at the peak, they then began the climb down to Mweka Camp (10,500ft) where the will spend the night.

 

Feb 6: The group has now arrived at the crater camp. They arrived here early, considering it is a long, difficult hike. After lunch and a break, a few members went off to explore the ash pit area. The others just chose to relax for the rest of the day. They will climb to the summit tomorrow morning around sunrise.

 

Feb5: The group is now at Arrow Glacier (16,00ft). They are all doing well, just a few light headaches.

They will be hiking to the Crater Camp at over 18,000ft and experiencing the cold temps and rocky trail..

 

Feb 4: The group is doing great; one person is experiencing a mild headache but this is normal. They are currently at about 14,000ft and are encountering a lot of rain on the mountain.

 

Feb 3: The group is doing well; they are currently at almost 13,000ft. They are out of the forest zone and temps are getting cooler. But everybody is doing well and feeling strong.
