MOUNTAINEERING - MT. KILIMANJARO
Mount Kenya is a broad, large
symmetrical volcano cone whose diameter at the base is about
12 km it was formed between 2.6 and 3.1 million years ago
by eruptions of successive layers of volcanic lava and agglomerate
from a central vent in the earth surface. Mount Kenya is
climbed at all times of year if possible however it is best
to try to avoid the two rainy seasons that usually start
in mid March and lasts through till mid June. As on any
high mountain, proper equipment is vital for a safe and
enjoyable climb. Even with porters, climbers should carry
some basic equipment with them at all times, including rain
gear, spare jersey, water and first aid kit.
High altitude problems are caused through the inability
of the human body to adjust to a through various forms to
the often more fatal pulmonary and cerebral oedemus (Hape
and Hace) the later being less common. Young males seem
to be most badly affected.
