A New Summit Sign for Kilimanjaro

01.23.2012

We have been following with some interest the exploits of professional baseballer R.A. Dickey as he and two fellow players climbed Mount Kilimanjaro. Since Dickey plays for the New York Mets, The New York Times has given him a blog, and he and his party summited recently. Congrats to them for making Uhuru Peak.

What struck us, though, was that their summit photo clearly shows there’s a new sign on Uhuru Peak. It’s borderline neon green (was it designed by some Oregon Ducks fan?) and we think it’s pretty cool. Not that we needed another reason to climb Kilimanjaro, but now we look forward to seeing that fancy new sign.
