Safety equipment questions
Can I rent emergency oxygen for a Kilimanjaro climb in Moshi?
Yes. We rent 5 large and 8 small oxygen cylinders. Cylinders are rented filled. Oxygen is emergency equipment for guides trained to use it. It treats symptoms during descent, but descending is still the main treatment for altitude sickness.
What is a porter kit bag?
A kit bag is the large bag a porter carries clients' luggage in. Using the same bag for each load makes weighing at the gate easier. Kilimanjaro National Park limits porter loads, so check the current limit with your operator.
Do the radios work all along the route?
Two-way radios work best in line of sight between guides and camp. Coverage varies with terrain, so test them at the start of the climb and agree call times.
