Woke up in the freezing morning to take photos of the stars...
And as you can see, it was well worth it..
The snow capped peaks against the starry sky.
The magical moment before the sun rose.
And the sky just kept changing colours..
This is probably the only toilet in the world set against such a majestic backdrop.
Where the sky and the ground met..
And we continue to climb... and climb.. and climb...
Cool dude.
Our porters overtaking us. (Even though we set off hours earlier..)
Man on the Moon?
This was probably the most tortuous part of the climb. I was probably having the worst headache of my life. It was just incapacitating. It reached its zenith at lunchtime and I threw away most of my uneaten food. While my friends continued up to Lava Tower, I had to make my way straight back to the next campsite. And the rain did nothing to lift our morale. We were all wet, cold and miserable by the time we reached the next camp...
