Slightly overcast skies will help us stay cool on our way up the mountain.

Some of the students seem a little nervous, but our guides are leading us at a very comfortable pace.

Let’s go!

Unfortunately, we will not have internet coverage along the trail, so there will be no updates during the climb. I know this is the time when many of you will be most eager to hear how everyone is doing, but I won’t be able to send the next update until we reach the summit. Wish us luck!
