Double Ascent: Kilimanjaro Challenge Begins & Meeting the Team

Deep Roots

In the first episode of Deep Roots Season 4, host Damien sets the stage for a new adventure and challenge: climbing Mount Kilimanjaro not once, but twice.

He shares the history of Kilimanjaro's discovery and the myths and legends surrounding it. Damien is joined by three fellow adventurers: Frank, Darren, and Marie, each with their own unique reasons for taking on this challenge.

Frank, who is unprepared and unexcited for the climb, decides to embrace the adventure without overthinking it. Darren, based in the Netherlands, sees this as an opportunity to have his own story to tell, especially with the news of his partner's pregnancy. Marie, inspired by Damien's journey, seizes the chance to challenge herself and be the best she can be.

The episode takes us through Damien's previous experience climbing Kilimanjaro, where he faced exhaustion, acute mountain sickness, and a challenging descent. Despite the hardships, he is excited to take on the mountain again, this time with a group of like-minded individuals.

Join Damien and his fellow adventurers on this thrilling journey to the roof of Africa, as they push their limits and share their unique perspectives on climbing Mount Kilimanjaro. Season 4 of Deep Roots promises to be an inspiring and eye-opening adventure.
