Mt. Kenya (Kenya), Naro Moru Route (map)

Hiking through a forest of giant groundsel

Our descent to McKinder's Camp went around Point John; the summit of Batian is just behind

Hiking with an umbrella to shade from the sun

Must have a little sun block

Descending back to the roadhead, just entering the jungle

Resting at the Met Station, totally beat

Our porters at the Met Station

Batian and Point John; the long ribbon of white is the Diamond Couloir

Pretty flower along the hiking trail

Repacking on the hike out

Jim washes up, first time in 2 weeks

Descending through the jungle to the Met Station

On the final march to the forest gate, glad to be done with it
