Journeys in Africa

Kilimanjaro - Roof Of Africa

Season 2, Episode 13 of 13

Host Bill Ball begins the ascent of the highest mountain in Africa. Trouble almost immediately affects the team as the cameraman suffers from fatigue and altitude sickness. Just over half way, the trip is in serious doubt as altitude, cold and wind force the team to evaluate their fitness to continue and now face their biggest challenges of the climb-a near sheer wall of rock and the grueling 18 hour day that is required in the final ascent. Is success in the cards or is this a near miss?
