Quiet Time
Literally "On Top of the World", this was taken from Uhuru Peak on Mt. Kilimanjaro, Tanzania about 19, 340 feet above ground. We had been hiking for four days when we started our ascent to the top at 11pm the night before after only a few hours of sleep in a very cold tent on Barafu's base camp. Seven and a half hours later, we watched the sun rise on Stella Point and made our marks on Uhuru another 45 minutes later, our fifth day hiking the country. I was hallucinating on my way up, but the view when we finally made it was something I will never forget.
