I reached the summit at 7:20 am, but we didn't stayed for too long up there. Altitude sickniss was brutal, so I didn't searched for this cache... Maybe next time!...

Hi

I drop a virtuall GC at the top of Kilimanjaro. I reached Uhuru Peak in January 2007 before I learned the thing abot geocacing. This will be the closest for me to make a cache hunt on Kili.

This coin will be handed over at a event in Sweden tonight and it's just a restplace in cyberspace for this coin.

So to all of you that are going for Uhru Peak just Pole pole. Good Luck!

If you have a guide called Matthew give him a hugh from Magnus Sweden,
