Al's Peak. 3/5/12
Martha and Alec are back for their successful trip to Kilimanjaro.
We are looking for some cave but this may not be that hill.
We will climb that anyway.
This is getting interesting
Made it to the ridge.
There is our next destination.
And now it is climb down.
Where to now?
Originally we planned this hike from a desert floor but it is too hot there so we are in McCain Valley.
Nice cool cave.
We could even sleep here.
More boulders.
Swarming subterranean termites.
High plateau.
Climb up to the peak.
Chuck got his TC here.
Let’s have a lunch.
Our group.
The next destination is: another cave.
Lot of rock formations here.
That looks like an observatory rock.
Here is that cave.
We have a picnic table for our picnic. What a treat.
