Kikelelwa Camp to Mawenzi Tarn Hut 4302m – a pleasant 4 hour trek uphill, traversing a dry river bed that still has a few senecios (lobelias) before rising up to the Tarn Hut campsite (see left). While only a small pond left these days, the campsite is spectacular, with views of Mawenzi above. In the evening, we took a sunset walk up to around 4600m for extra acclimatisation.
Ate too many salted almonds and suffered most of the night from gas – the realities of expedition life.
