Kilimanjaro Pictures

Aerial View Of Mount Kilimanjaro,
We climbed from the
Western Breach which is a rocky wall just above Arrow Glacier.
This route is supposedly no longer climbed due to a
landslide on January 2006 which killed four people. The
breach is actually the
little notch at the top right just in front of the
glacier to the right of the main peak. This ridge is
usually reached around 6:30 am then you cross the flat
to the far right of Uhuru peak (The protruding ridge far
end of the volcano). For me climbing that little pitch
of snow and rock was the hardest. After that it is a
quick picture and we cross the ridge right to left and
descend the scree slope on the left. |

Mount Meru makes for a nice hike after acclimatizing on a Mount Kilimanjaro
ascent. Located just North/East of Arusha.
