[pct-l] Mount Kilimanjaro

[Reinhold Metzger]

Hi gang,
Karen (my wife) and I and some ski club members are planing a trip to 
Africa
this summer.
While in Africa, some members are considering adding climbing Mount
Kilimanjaro to our agenda.
At 19,340 feet that is one heck of a mountain.
I have been up Mt. Whitney at least twenty times but there is a big 
difference
between 14,496 feet and 19,340 feet.
I am not concerned about myself, but I am concerned about Karen.
She is in good shape at age 71, but not nearly as strong a hiker as I am.
Has anybody on this list climbed Kilimanjaro?
If yes, what is your opinion.
