Kilimanjaro: Hahn & Team Reach the Summit!
Update: August 14, 2016 - 2:24 am PT
Dave Hahn here on Kilimanjaro. I just wanted to update you. We got down from the summit just fine actually at about 11:45 am local time. It's now almost 12:30 in the afternoon we've had lunch at our high camp here at Barafu and we're packing up to go down to Mweka Camp, down in the forest. So we still got an afternoon of work, but everybody is good and all is well. Bye.

Hey, this is Dave Hahn with the RMI Mt Kilimanjaro climb. We are on the summit! We are on Uhuru Point. We are 19,340 feet above sea level. We are higher than anything else in Africa, and it's a spectacular day. We got up here the whole team doing just fine at about 7:55 local time in the morning. And just a beautiful day, very calm sunny, no clouds above us and clouds way down at the bottom covering all of Africa. We feel like we're the king of the world today. We're really lucking out and I'll let you know when we're down at camp safe. And will keep you updated on our progress. Bye now.

So excited to hear you had beautiful weather and everyone is doing fine. We can’t wait to see the pictures which probably won’t be half as spectacular as the real thing. Safe travels during your final descend and thank you for the updates and giving our kids such a wonderful adventure.
