  • Here is a list of everything I bought for my Kilimanjaro climb, September 2022. I go over both what I bought and what my experienced guide brings.
    -- The Patagonia duffel was only 120L, not 130L as I mentioned in the video.

    Mega cool SnareMan, congrats on the trip big time!
    That was a lot of sweet gear, big fan of the boots but they are not the best in snow and cold.
    I hope you make a video of the trip for us to see more!

    I absolutely love my osprey manta 28. I’ve had it for 5 years now, it’s done several 14ers in Colorado, as well as Kilimanjaro, very well might do toubkal in Morocco in late May, and Everest base camp in October, as well as just being my go to bag for all my hiking, pretty much. I did Kilimanjaro in october 2021 by way of a 6 day machame route. I flew from Denver-JFK-AMS-JRO, I liked those flights, as it got in at 8:30 pm of day 0, and we didn’t start hiking until day 2, so that allowed me to get in, and pretty much straight to sleep. Anyways, about how I decided what to take. As I live in Colorado, and hike all summer, and ski all winter, I basically took what I normally wear hiking in the high (13k’+), and my ski clothes for summit night, to keep me warm on summit night. That made it so much easier to know what to take. I just wish I had taken a bigger duffel bag, that’s the only mistake I made, I was still able to get everything in there, but it was tight. When it comes time for Everest base camp, I’ll have to buy a bigger bag.

      @SnareMan  ปีที่แล้ว

      Yeah, when I did EBC there were some people that had a 90 l uffle and while you could make the stuff fit they all complain that it was kind of a tight fit. I was surprised even having this 120 liter bag which I thought would be pretty huge it was still even pretty tight but still good and underweight

    • @SnareMan
      @SnareMan  ปีที่แล้ว

      @@schumi246 Yes, really similar. Although I took a little warmer sleeping bag for Kili since you are sleeping in a tent versus tea houses and some of the tea houses also had blankets that you could put on top of your sleeping bag. I have an EBC preparation and packing video as well I can try and find after I get home to a computer.

      Thanks! The US based company was Adventures Within Reach and they farmed the actual climb out to African Scenic Safaris who was amazing. I used AWR because they offer some custom options for their trips. I did a solo climb and got to add a few things.
