With 192 photos and a day-to-day account of the tough trek and climb up Africa's highest mountain we are presented with a unique insight into a Kilimanjaro mountain expedition. We learn about the preparations for the trek, explore the town of Moshi, the starting point for this expedition through the Kilimanjaro National Park, and relive the ultimate ascent, starting at night and under rough conditions up to Uhuru Peak, the 5,895-meter summit. This is a story full of emotions, told with lots of respect for the environment and for the local team that supported the author on his expedition. The many photos present a clear picture of nature's diversity on the mountain slopes of Kilimanjaro but also testify to the global climatological changes. The impressive glaciers pushing down from the summit crater and the extensive ice fields are disappearing at a fast rate.
