January 30, 2008 - Lava Tower - This is getting serious!

Today we hike to Lava Tower Camp - which is at 15, 213 feet above sea level. This is the highest altitude either JT or I have ever experienced. The air is pretty thin up there! The hike is the toughest yet - but not too bad. Once we get to camp, we have time for a rest, then an optional climb up Lava Tower.






This photo shows our very capable guide, Bernard, in the center. I always was confident in his ability and judgement - an important thing.

Did you all really hike that close together most of the way? That surprises me.
