The 3 Peaks 3 Weeks Challenge is already underway, but it's better late than never around here. This expedition is a climb, three actually, with a cause. On January 6, a team of ten women set out to climb three peaks in, wait for it, three weeks. The peaks include Mt. Kenya, Mt. Meru, and Mt. Kilimanjaro in Africa. The climb has been organized to promote awareness about "three peak issues" that are of concern in Africa, namely environment, education and HIV/AIDS.
As of now, the team has summited Mt. Kenya and are now moving on to Meru next, before finishing up with Kili next week.
It looks like a great adventure, and a lot of fun. The fact that they are climbing for a casue makes it even better. But with ten women on these mountains right now, I can't help but thinking I picked the wrong week to climb Kili. ;)
