Weather was pretty good, but with a few grey clouds on the horizon (and bear sighting warnings), we head back down rather than trying to head up to Lower (and Upper) Galatea Lake.
Looks like we made the right call, as about half way down, it started to pour down. I was pretty much drenched already, so I didn't even bother putting on my shell. But the sun came back out as we were finishing up.
Pretty scenic trail which criss-crosses the creek at multiple points. Upper half of trail definitely a lot steeper, hopefully next time we will have the opportunity to check out Galatea Lakes.

Does anyone else see the irony in the McDonald's breakfast? :P
Hello,
Tremendous blog post, loads of beneficial information.Because almost all local Tanzanians can access and register to become a guide on Kilimanjaro, this has led to hundreds of tour operators in the mountains today.
Thanks
