Barafu Camp with the mess tent in the background. In the front are Kate O'Neill and Narelle Rodway, the afternoon before the attempt on the summit. Narelle made it to Stella Point. Kate, the youngest in the team, had to be rescued during the attempt at night. Kate was given oxygen after she fell unconscious and was immediately carried down to base camp at Mweka by four of our porters.

Kate and her Mother Linda, who went down with her, will be back for another go in two years time. We were all very relieved to see Kate well and fully recovered at Mweka on our return form the summit attempt.

Narelle's determination and spirit earned her the Rotary Kili 28/8 award, Narelle is a Lion!

Mandy Watson our official photograher. Thanks Mandy.

Hard, hard work.

The Team starting off on Day 2 into the Heath Zone on Kilimanjaro.

The porters were so fit, strong and always happy. They also passed us daily.
