Some highlights from #Rwenzori2022 summit climb while I continue to edit shots: day 1 was mostly @rkabushenga rethinking his life choices and why it led him here ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚

But he was more than ready!
Day 1 is mostly getting your heart rate to acclimatize as you slowly ascent to camp Nyabitaba, crossing rivers on bridges and stairs as you stretch the lungs. Even met some colorful friends along the way. #Rwenzori2022
Day 3: the mountain comes alive with colors, bubbling brooks of sparkling mountain water, crisp air, and more altitude #Rwenzori2022

MONDAY THREAD:

TOURISM BUSINESS TIPS.

Uganda's tourism hasnt taken off yet and i can see signs of it taking off and this is why i think it hasnt taken off.

Inside all our 10 national parks and 12 games reserves combined have less than 1500 beds which is nearly less than 30%..
of what Masaai mara alone has. Forget the so many other protected areas Kenya has. Remember we were bigger than them until 1971.

Just across in Kenya companies like Somak, A &K, and many others easily turnover 50m dollars a year.

A company like @SafarisUganda has simply...
done one or two things right. Prepared its self for take off, should Uganda take off like i think it will.

In Kenya no one would even think about a chap like me or even have sleepless nights over @SafarisUganda, It's a reflection of the general environment we operate in.

โšก๏ธMission: Take on the mystical Rwenzori Mountain Ranges
๐Ÿ’ฅRoute: Central Circuit
๐ŸŽฏTarget: Margherita & Victoria Emanuele Peaks on Mt Stanley & Mt Speke
11 individuals, one goal!

A Mystical Thread: #UgandaUnseen #Rwenzori202
The JOURNEY: Let's start from the beginning. Touch down at basecamp. This is when it gets real. It's the point of no return.

First things first:
โœ… Gear check
โœ… Weight check (total of 21kgs)
โœ… Technical climbing equipment check

#UgandaUnseen #Rwenzori2022
This prep day at basecamp is essential. It is time for the hike guides to do a final check to ensure everyone has everything they need on the mountain.

The weigh-in determines that everyone has a specific amount of weight in kgs for porters to carry. #UgandaUnseen #Rwenzori2022
