You flip through your syllabus only to find another assignment.

The peaks of Tanzania’s Mount Kilimanjaro, the world’s highest free-standing equatorial mountain, puff with boiling sulfurous smoke despite its year-round frozen snow-covered peaks. Daring hikers climb the mystical folklore-filled peaks through its drastic climate variations ranging from densely vegetated tropical forests with frequent torrential rainfall to sandy alpine deserts. Reaching the summit of Mount Kilimanjaro is an emotionally exploding feeling that Sharon Foster, vice chair of the Appalachian Mountain Club (AMC) Worcester Chapter, describes as “exhausting but spectacular.” After four and a half days of pouring rain and heavy snow, Foster and fellow adventure-seekers reached its peak in time to celebrate New Years Day 2007.
