We reach the cave….[I was miss-informed at this point. NOT the cave that marks the halfway point. Just a small stopping point] 4,950 meters. I feel like a dead man (laughing to myself). I’m gonna leave this thing now – gonna make it!

All I can think about it sleep. “Pole, pole” [meaning slowly, slowly in Swahili]
Thurs. June 21st (after 6am)
The sun is officially over the horizon. I don’t’ have a clue what time it is; but whatever time the sun rises in Africa. We didn’t quite make our goel, not quite to Gilman’s Point. Just need to get there; or die trying. It’s beautiful up here. Nothing “pleasant” about it.
