Climbing Mt. Meru



Last weekend Mark, Jordan, Rylee, Kate, and I climbed Mt. Meru (14, 980 ft.)!  Although it was not as high as Kili, it was a much more technical climb and more physically demanding!

Views on the way up


We walked through a game park on the way up to the summit and had to be escorted by a ranger in case we came across any animals.  This was a skeleton we found

Although it was cold, it was not nearly as freezing as Kili
