    After breakfast we followed the track uphill, forking right at the junction.
    We had a water break, then continued on the track crossing Ontulili River before turning right contouring through the Moorland and crossing Liki North River.
    The weather was a mix of drizzles and sun. So we layered up and down several times. We then continued uphill to Mackinders Valley from where there are panoramic views up the valley towards the Shipton Camp.
    The walk through Mackinders Valley is long and very rewarding in terms of views, streams, birds, basically everything nature. It's a feeling that is out of this world! I loved the whole experience but this specific walk inside Mackinders Valley tops the list for me.
    We then got to Shiptons Camp. This camp is a surreal setting below the towering peaks and glacier. Resident population is of Rock hyrax and sun birds.
    Shiptons Camp served as our base camp ahead of our summit chase.

      Hehe it is a mental game. Keep psyching yourself. Also, attend easy day hikes and observe your progress. In time you'll be dancing on summits 🤗
