through the jungle




through the jungle





The Kilimanjaro climb begins in jungle, some of which is pretty thick, as you can see here.

We were a party of eight doing the trek, Marie and myself plus two friends and an American and an English couple. The guy in this shot is Chris, an American who signed up for the trip at the last minute.
When we arrived at the start point the clearing was full of Tanzanian guys and lots of gear and food scattered all over the place. We wondered what they were doing there until we discovered they were our porters and all this stuff was for us. You cannot climb Kilimanjaro without a guide (the rules of the national park) and while we had two fantastic guides in Felix and Edward I didn't really expect to see so many supplementary guys who would be carrying the gear up the mountain. These guys carry VERY big loads (tents, cooking equipment, food) and often with the minimum of their own equipment - we had our stout hillwalking boots, they had flipflops. Nice warm fleeces for us at night, they had a kagoul if they were lucky. It did make me feel a bit uncomfortable having folk do all this heavy lugging for us, just so we could have our adventure holiday, but Felix did point out that having a job as a porter was a pretty big deal for them - they had an income from this and were pretty well paid for the job. Having said this, not all tour companies are as rigorous at ensuring porters are paid properly. We used a company called Gane and Marshall who have a proper policy for their porters and guides. At the end of the climb, when we got back down off the mountain, we gave a lot of our clothing away to the porters - fleeces, hats, gloves, waterproofs, stuff that we could easily replace when we got home.

The climb starts off in jungle, moves on to scrub land as you get higher, then into volcanic ash and bouldery scree and finally glaciers and snow on the summit crater rim - four temperate zones in the one trek.

My own "design". With some help of the internet I found some indications how to knit gloves. And presto, some nice yarn (self striping for the center bit). I finished the cuff and center bit within a couple of hours. But then found it extremely tedious to knit the thumb and fingers... Mittens for me in the future.
