Our second day on the mountain finds us at an elevation of just over 11,800ft - Kielewa Cave Camp.  Today was a long hike - about 6 hours, so everyone is very glad to be at camp and we will soon be enjoying some afternoon tea.  Our plan is to evaluate the weather and how people are feeling; and either take a rest day here tomorrow, or proceed to our next camp - Mewenzi Tarn -  and rest the following day.
