Younger female looking for gold in her nose.... After a heavy trek up the side of the mountain and some bushwhacking through the jungle and bamboo forests we came within a 15 minute walk. At that point we had to leave our packs and poles and begin bushwhacking through dense plant life until we were within a couple feet of our first gorilla.

A Silver Back surveying the land after having pushed a few of us out of the way since we had already cleared a path for him. I could almost hear him walk by saying damn tourists don't know how to walk on the path. To get to the gorillas after our hike to their general position was walking on and through slippery brush at a 40° angle sliding and stopping.
