If you wonder whether you can achieve a truly great outdoor adventure often reserved for the elite, extreme athlete, the answer is a clear and emphatic “YES!”

In 2002, my dream came true. I traveled to Tanzania, Africa and climbed Mt. Kilimanjaro. In so many ways, my trip was a life changing experience. From the unique occurrence of ascending through every ecological climate zone on earth to hearing the roar of a distant rock slide on the mountain to traversing a 600 foot wall at 14,000 feet above sea level, my trip has been permanently etched in my memory forever.

The feeling connected with undertaking a great adventure is fantastic … pushing one’s self beyond self-imposed boundaries and motivating yourself to new levels of personal growth. However, it is not just the climb that inspires me to werite to you today, but also the beauty of Africa itself. That beauty was so wonderfully revealed during several awesome safaris, in the viewing of truly unique and spectacular landscapes, and in my encounters with a culture, artwork, and people so very different from any I have ever known.

Maybe best of all, I consider myself incredibly fortunate to have shared this wonderful experience with some of the friendliest and most interesting people I have ever met. We came together as a group of individual from varied backgrounds sharing an interest in climbing Kilimanjaro, but left as friend who developed camaraderie during our short time together.

That’s why I’ve created this web page. I am here to tell you that thousands of people just like you travel to Africa every year to climb Kilimanjaro – at 19,341 feet, the highest free-standing mountain in the world and the highest point on the continent of Africa. And if I can do it, so can you!
