2350 metres - middle volcano
3900 metres - Rinjani (main volcano peak)
2600 metres - our maximum height, at crater edge.
Up about 6:15, slept good. It was quite warm in the tent.
Had a cup of tea, then packed everything up while our guides made breakfast, two tomato jaffles and a hard boiled egg.
Started back down about 7:30, our porter racing ahead. Vincent and I ditched our slowpoke guides and got to teh crater rim about 9:15 and waited. Guides showed up about 10:30.
Then hiked down to base camp 3, where we spent the first night, nd had lunch. Left there about 1:15, then down to the start/finish, about 3:30. The bemo was waiting for us, and took us back to Senggigi.
Good trek. The crater lake was amazing.
Back at the hotel, I showered to get all the grime and dirt off, then walked downtown (free transport from hotel isn't running tonight), and bought a new toothbrush, then hit internet, then food, then took a motorbike taxi back to the hotel at 9:00, packed and went to bed.
