great Kili: Day 4-- Barranco Camp to Karanga Camp 5.8 km

We learned very quickly where the wall was-- straight up! We climbed hand-over-hand for the first half of the day. I'm increasingly amazed/ impressed by the porters. Our guides (as all guides do) started out as porters (and then cooks, and then assistant guides) for almost 6 years before working their way up to guiding.

The top of the wall was quite cool, and the weather was really nice. It didn't rain until the very end of the day. If it had rained in the morning, I don't think the climbing would have been as fun :P

I (personally) love bouldering, so this day was quite fun. As long as I didn't look down. The descent afterward was less than fun, but oh, well. From here on out is up, up, up! Until we go down...
