KILIMANJARO

KILIMANJARO
Another trek challenge completed - Reaching
the summit of Mount Kilimanjaro at 19,341 feet above sea level and the highest
free standing mountain in the world is my proudest achievement so far. I didn’t start trekking until I retired and I
have surprised myself (and many others) in what I have accomplished. I have had
the most incredible experiences and met some amazing and inspirational people. Thank you so much for all of your
support on each endeavour and for believing in me. You have helped me to raise £9,500 on this
trek taking the total for all three treks to a fantastic £18,000, with Gift Aid to be added to that total.

Week 11 - Fulwood to Stanage Edge and Hathersage



An early start on a 5.1/2 Hr walk with Daniel from Fulwood to Stanage Pole, which marks the border between Derbyshire and South Yorkshire on Hallam Moors to Stanage Edge a famous location for rock climbers who were out in force! where we turned left over a craggy outcrop overlooking Burbage Valley. Dropping down through Burbage and across the sometimes boggy valley to our final destination - Hathersage. For the first time I am nursing a blister! Altogether very enjoyable exhilarating walk (despite the blister).
