It's Been a Nang Day's Night

So this past weekend I had a great opportunity to check out a women's empowerment seminar put on by my friend's over in the Katesh area. The conference brought primary school girls to talk about different women's issues such as puberty, how to put-off sex, and being strong and independant.

The conference went great, and on the second day the group climbed Mt. Hanang. A pretty good climb. At about 3400m it took about 2 hours to walk to the mountain and then about 4 hours to the top. Here are some pics from the climb...

The mountain from afar...


Looking west over the great rift valley...



Mt. Hanang is a old volcano that blasted out one of its sides. All the land around it is littered with massive craters, very cool.

The first group to the top (mine of course!)

All the girls from the conference [that made it to the top]


Cheers,
