IMGP5192__Small_.JPGWe heard from our guide today that they had reached Myola Junction 1900 area where they planned on spending the night.
All trekkers are doing ok and enjoying their trek so it seems speaking with our guide who was laughing and joking about the state of origin.
They were not able to watch it live but heard from one of our other treks heading in the opposite direction who won!
IMG_0326___Templeton__s_Cros__Small_.jpgUpdate 5th July: Trekkers have now reached the half way point of Efogi where they have picked up their half way food. Tomorrow they will head off to Agulogo.
All trekkers are doing just fine and enjoying their trek.

Brigade_Hill_2__Small_.jpgWe heard from Harold at Brigade Hill earlier today that they were on the move and were having a short break before to Menari. Depending on how the group were going they may push on further to Agulogo or spend the night in Menari. Apparently today Glenys is having a tough day but powering on and doing ok.
