This is serious!
Forget the travel brochures. To take a page from Rudyard Kipling ("If you can keep your head while all about you are losing theirs..."): If you still want to go after reading this description, then you are serious...or seriously crazy. I love the title: Climb and Punishment. This is the most graphic and detailed (and realistic?) description that I have read yet. And she took the Rongai route which is supposed to be the easiest!

Which route did the Hollywood celebrities take? This is the group I sent a link to you that climbed Kili to raise awareness about clean water.

It was hard to figure out but I think it was the "Coca-Cola" Marangu route. I do know that they drove to 12,000 feet before they started climbing. There will be a documentary of their climb on MTV on Mar 14th.
ReplyDeleteHello,
ReplyDeleteThere are certainly a lot more details to take into consideration, but thanks for sharing this post. Safety is certainly the most important thing, but it is not the only one. The best operators to climb Kilimanjaro simply do not have the best safety record,
This is a really good read for me. Must admit that you are one of the best bloggers I ever saw.
