Normally a 5:00 am wake up call would be met with some minor level of hostility or surprise but the one I received this morning was warmly welcomed. Monty called to inform us that so far it has been a good, tough climb and they are prepared to summit from Barafu Camp at midnight tomorrow night! Yesterday was apparently a particularly challenging day with the scramble to the top of the Great Barranco, though they are soldiering on to the peak!

Side note: How he can get cell reception from an $17 phone from the peak of Africa but I get dropped calls in my stairway...
GO KILICLIMB 2012!!!
Had a call last night from my daughter who is part of the climb. She was in good spirits, and we are both amazed that they had cell reception up there. I am hoping for a call again once they have reached the summit....
