The snow's gone,what a pity!
The utimate goal of investing is to buy low sell high;if we re-write this core equation in psychology terms it becomes buy fear sell greed.

And they don't look alike..

When you run so fast to get somewhere,you miss the fun of getting there... Life is not a race,so take it slowly....

@simonkabz- point lenana is in the 3rd pic,extreme left,been there too and will be back! The first pic shows batian and nelion,u 've got to be there to appreciate the height! From shipton to Batian is a whole km of vertical rock and snow,with numerous peaks rising like a cathedral. The snow is seasonal,was there in Dec and it was all white with snow,all the peaks covered. There was this american woman who was going to climb batian then, yaani when we were gearing up to go up to lenana,she was going for the main .From shipton u look at what she wants to climb and u r left speechless. To get to batian u spend a night in austrian hut which is as high as point lenana,dont be fooled by the pics,the weather up there is extremely harsh and oxygen ni haba! Head ache kwa wingi.

The world is a book and those who do not travel read only one page.

Theu...I totally feel you on the extreme weather. I remember nearly becoming a victim of frost bite just before reaching shipton. We had been trekking for nearly an hour in the ice rain on the way to shipton. Luckily we found the porters had already set a charcoal jiko on to warm our cold behinds. A couple of sips of locally distilled chang'aa from the porters finally warmed our freezing souls. Wherever the porters got the chang'aa I have no idea but in such tempratures only chum does the trick!!
All in all,Mt Kenya is a beautiful sight to marvel and behold .
