Day 7: Summit Day

Hi all.. We have just had the following update from Greg and Eamon the Inspire Mountain Trip Leaders:

'Hi all. We are now all safely back down at Kibo Camp having lunch before descending further to Horombo Huts later this afternoon.

Five team members made it to the summit (William C, Sebastian B, Oliver MH, Joshua BJ and Henry C), with another seven making it to Gilman's Point (Alec GC, Archie, Charles, George E, Jack E , Tom R and Sven WVS).

The other team members did amazingly well but the effects of altitude meant they had to descend earlier (Atticus, Cameron, George G, George L, Thomas TD).

It was amazing weather throughout the climb with little wind, stunning stars and an incredible sunrise.'

The team did amazingly well and were really supportive of each other.

We are all on good form and looking forward to hot showers and food when we get back to the lodge tomorrow!
