Africa 2003

		Africa 2003

This page contains links to the climbing and safari trip that I took to Tanzania and Kenya in December '02 & January '03. I joined a Colorado Mountain Club group of 13 other people going to Africa to summit Mt. Kilimanjaro and Mt. Kenya, and take a side excursion on a safari.

I've uploaded my digital pictures (for climbing Kilimanjaro & Kenya) and scanned and uploaded my slides (for the safari). If you want prints from any of these pictures, just send me an email.

A note to users of this site: If you are accessing via high-speed internet, you'll be fine. If you are on dial-up, going to the next pages of pictures shouldn't be that painful at first, as they are just "thumbnail" (i.e. small) pictures and should download fairly quickly. If you click on any of these pictures, you will access the full image and downloading will take a bit of time on dial-up.
