Our First Sighting of Mount Kilimanjaro
Kilimanjaro National Park
It took getting to Shira camp, waiting to almost sunset for the clouds to clear before we got our first look at Mount Kilimanjaro. When the clouds fully disapaited and we saw just how big it was, the awe inspiring view was replaced by a lot of trepidation. We were already at over 11,000 ft. I thought we were on the mountain, but this view showed us how much farther we truly had to go. Photo © copyright by Joe Luedtke.
