A father and son climb Mount Kilimanjaro. On the journey to the roof of Africa they traverse the treacherous terrain of fatherhood, divorce, dark secrets and old grudges, and forge an authentic adult relationship. The high-altitude trek takes them through some of the weirdest landscapes on the planet, and the final all-night climb to the frozen summit tests their endurance. On the way to the top father and son explore how our stories about ourselves can imprison us in the past, and the importance of letting go. The mountain too has a story to tell, a story about Climate Change and the future of humankind - a future etched all too clearly on Kilimanjaro’s retreating glaciers. ,

Pole pole (pronounced poh-lay, poh-lay), means slowly, slowly. These words are the heartbeat of my dream to climb Kilimanjaro. My dad climbed Kilimanjaro in 1948 and used these words every time he spoke to me of his climb. He said, "Follow the pace of the guide, pole pole; slowly, slowly and you will make it to the top."Pole pole for me is not only the pace set on the mountain but how my dream was instilled in my heart...beating slowly, slowly over a lifetime until at age fifty, I heard my dad speak the words, "Sandy, you can climb Kilimanjaro, you can make it to the top. Follow the guide, pole pole, slowly, slowly."Come follow my father's footprints as he climbed Kilimanjaro in 1948. Come follow me as my dream, God's calling me, went from hesitation to reality to put my own footprints, pole pole, on top of Kilimanjaro in 2013.Read for yourself as I dared to dream, dared to climb--not just any mountain--but Mount Kilimanjaro, in Tanzania, East Africa. Kilimanjaro is the highest, free-standing mountain on the African continent, standing at 19,341 ft. high.Discover for yourself from where this dream came. Find out what the climb was like. I was changed as I dared to dream, to struggle, to find a way to climb Kilimanjaro. And, yes, I saw God on the mountain. God "stirred the pot" many times by calling me throughout my life to come see and climb her. What a journey it was leaving my footprints on Kilimanjaro! Pole pole, the journey begins.

Carmichael and Stoddard describe the process of planning, preparation, and execution of their Mount Kilimanjaro adventure. The book is intended to be a step-by-step guide for training, making arrangements, gearing up, and preparing for potential medical problems, time differences and language barriers. They offer hiking guidelines, mental strategies, and even photography techniques. Their diary of the six-day climb gives a vivid description of how they made it up the mountain and back down.

CLICK HERE TO DOWNLOAD THE FIRST CHAPTER (Provide us with a little information and we'll send your download directly to your inbox) * Entertaining climbing narrative about a destination many dream of visiting * Perfect gift for adventure travelers and climbers alike * Dorr's story was featured on the Outdoor Life Network's "Countdown to the 25 Most Dangerous Places" Mount Kilimanjaro is sometimes called "Everyman's Everest" because it is possible for a novice climber to reach the summit. And every year, more than 30,000 adventure tourists try. But for each person who goes to the mountain, there are thousands more who chat about it at cocktail parties, making plans to go...someday. That's how Daniel Dorr got started: flirting with a beautiful brunette over hot cocoa and spouting impressive plans. Six months later, he was lying on the cold gravel trail at 18,000 feet, panting and hacking in the darkness. Dorr is a typical marketing exec by day but, amped up by his re-acquaintance with a romantic interest, he gained the determination to pursue one of his lifelong dreams -- summiting Kilimanjaro. When Dorr left behind the familiarity of his weekend-warrior lifestyle in Southern California to reach the top of the 19,340-foot peak, he didn't realize he would cross a threshold to a new way of life. As he fondles expensive hi-tech gear, gets vaccinated for the jungle, travels local-style across East Africa, and vomits on top of the African continent, readers share in the rewards, both large and small, of reaching for personal fulfillment through adventure travel.

'As someone with no interest in adventure travel, I was surprised to find that I couldn't put this book down. The narrative is absorbing and engaging; the story is told with such authenticity that it captured my imagination the way a good novel would, leaving me eager to follow the students' journey and find out what would happen next. Despite being written by a variety of authors, the voice seemed very consistent and the book transitioned smoothly from one chapter to the next. I was completely caught up in the students' thoughts and emotions; I felt as though I was walking alongside them as they faced each challenge, getting to know them, and cheering them on to achieve their goal. I felt fortunate to benefit from the lessons they learned without having to leave the comfort of my warm, safe home. I enthusiastically recommend this book to anyone who might be contemplating a similar trip (or whose child has proposed such a trip) and also to anyone who loves to get lost in a fascinating, compelling, and well-told story.' Dr. Diane Miller, Director of Student Academic Services at the University of Georgia Students in Elon University's first adventure-based learning course to Tanzania hiked to the top of Mt. Kilimanjaro - millennial style. Then they wrote a book about it. The 22 upper-level students in the Core Capstone course authored this book in order to share what they learned from their adventure, and provide helpful information for those who follow in their footsteps. Most travel adventure books about Kilimanjaro are written by older adults, and tend to focus on the individual's “peak experience." Those reading Kilimanjaro, Millennial Style will quickly grasp the different ways young adults perceive their world, how their relationships are deepened, where they find adventure, and what it means to have an authentic experience together. As one of the authors wrote, "I would never want to hike to the top of Kilimanjaro again. Not because it wasn't the most amazing experience I have ever had, but because it wouldn't be with the people that made my experience so extraordinary."
