Rongai Gate to Simba Hut 2019 – Kili Initiative

March 30, 2020 – 4:29 pm

After a quick box lunch we set out for Simba Hut. I proceeded before the Kili Initiative Team. We were trekking through a rain forest. The team chattered without cessation and I preferred quiet.

40 Meter Mad Dash – Marangu, Tanzania – 2019 Kili Initiative Team # 22

January 14, 2020 – 10:28 pm

Tomorrow […]

I hadn’t been eaten by hyenas, no one had gotten sick, and we had conquered the birthplace of all thorns, Lolapange.

Kili Initiative 2019 – A Path Into The Plains – # 6

August 29, 2019 – 9:20 am

Loitokitok’s Preacher Man launched the morning program right at dawn. I recognized his rant and climbed out of the tent growling off its best lines. The church across the valley glowed with light. I couldn’t make out a single person on the veranda. The young people at the table shook their heads hearing my speaking […]
