The BGE Kilimanjaro 2012 expedition team of Ash, Kennard, Amanda, Amelia, Nathan, Robin, Annie, Yvan, Karel, Frederike, Jack, Miss Cropper, Dr Wood and Mr Cole (with the addition of Miss Werger and Toby just for the day) had a day out climbing up the extinct Longonot volcano and then around the rim of the crater, a distance of about 20 km. The views were fabulous and so was the spirit of the team. Well done to everybody. A great day's training.
