Day 6 – Karanga Valley Camp (Acclimatization Day)

Today was an acclimatization day, and an opportunity to let my feet rest.  During the afternoon I hiked up above the camp about 45 minutes, then back, but for the most part this was just a day of relaxation, reading, drinking tea and chatting with team members.

The extra time to acclimatize here was valuable, as some of the team were still suffering from the altitude.  I was also glad to let the blisters on my feet subside a bit more.

The summit seemed closer here, and was a little more intimidating than it had been before.
