Your climb to kilimanjaro
davasicek — Thu, 03/29/2007 - 17:48Hi!
We have set up a website about our climb to kilimanjaro in 2003. Even though it is in german, You will find a lot of pictures about that amazing trip to Kili You are about to do.
Befor we went to Kilimanjaro we did some acclimatization at Mount Kenya. That was very helpful because You got used to the thin air and we didn't have any high altitude problems on Kibu. For questins I will be happy to answer them to You.
Have fun, think positive and enjoy that great mountain. Jambo!

Hi David!
aeronik — Sat, 03/31/2007 - 05:21Wow, you have such nice pictures. I see that you also went to EBC. I actually did in 2006. What a great adventure! About Kilimanjaro, how long did you take to climb up? On my expedition, we are about to summit on day 6. Do you think I'll be fine since I have no previous acclimatization hike before? Day 1 (2800 meters), day 2 (3800), day 3 (3900), day 4 (acclimatization day and back to 4000 meters), day 5 (4600), day 6 (start at midnight and summit day). What do you think of this planning? We're going through Machame route. Thanks again for all the great pictures. You made me want to be there and especially MAKE it to the top!!!
Ciao, Bye,
