My version of the year 2011 in review: 20 September

On the first day of my fourth climb of Mt. Kilimanjaro, I stayed behind the group - as usual - and so did Jim Whitney, who in this photograph, took a low angle shot of the other climbers with his video camera as we inched our way towards Big Tree Camp, the first overnight stay of the 8-day climb on the Lemosho route.

The Lemosho route has one of the highest climber success rate for reaching the summit of all of Mt. Kilimanjaro's routes. It allows gradual acclimatization of the body to the high altitudes.
