New York Times - Up the Mountain Slowly, Very Slowly

Follow the link for writer Tom Bissell’s account of his painful and exhausting climb to the summit of Mount Kilimanjaro.

Also be sure to check out this interactive journey showing the route taken by Tom, as well as audio / video from the trek.

The article is long, but well worth it. If you're looking for a quick look instead, the interactive portion is fantastic.

... on a side note, Kilimanjaro was just listed by the New York Times as one of the '53 Places To Go in 2008.'
