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!

@SnareMan Год назад

Thanks. Working on putting together the video from the hike. I have a few others I have to get out first though. I just wanted to do this one before I put everything away. :-)

@lisaball1701 Год назад

I’ve watched your content over several years off and on. I started watching them for pant reviews when I had to pay out of pocket for uniform items. Thanks for sharing your advice and your expedition.

@SnareMan Год назад

You're welcome. Thanks for watching. 🙂

Really helpful - what you brought & actually USED. I would say Im bringing my parka.. since we leave at 11:30/ Midnight to summit. If bot needed then fine.. but thats a LONG time til sunrise for us.

@SnareMan Месяц назад

Glad it was helpful. I thought, how cold could it be on summit night. I've been in cold weather before. It was shockingly cold for my fingers and toes. My core was fine

A great video - very useful information.

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 Год назад

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

@schumi246 Год назад

@@SnareMan how would you compare the gear you took up Kilimanjaro vs. the gear you took to Everest base camp?? Pretty similar??

@SnareMan Год назад

@@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.

@SnareMan Год назад

If you search my channel for Everest base camp videos it should all come up as well as videos from my trek.

@veritas.ve.42 Год назад

Great gear & tips video, after your Himalayan base camp gear video. 👍🏻

@SnareMan Год назад

Thanks!

@veritas.ve.42 Год назад

@@SnareMan We the viewers, should be thankful to you for putting out these videos. I still use your comprehensive Himalayan base camp gear list, including the medical list as a guide to all my trips.

@SnareMan Год назад

@@veritas.ve.42 I appreciate the kind thoughts. Thanks!!!

@veritas.ve.42 Год назад

Whenever you find time, please link the full leg zipped rain paints or spell out the brand name please. Thank you. I could only find Marmot in the full leg zipped category for $100/- bucks.

@SnareMan Год назад

@@veritas.ve.42 Oops. Sorry about that. I forgot those on the list. I will find them and add them after work and reply here

@cash102473 Год назад

Great video. Lots of good info. Which trekking company did you use? Why?

@SnareMan Год назад

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.

Oh hey that's Francis! Jambo Francis!

How do you know Francis?

@Robot-Rising Год назад

@@SnareMan indeed! Randomly saw your video thumbnail and thought it looked like him 😁 , your video is reminding me I need to go through all of my footage and edit/post something. What an amazing trek it is. Looks like you had good weather too!

@SnareMan Год назад

@@Robot-Rising yea, overall I'd say I had great weather. Minimal to no rain and certainly cold at night, but not unbearable.

@TheFlyingotto Год назад

What trek did you do and company?

@SnareMan Год назад

I booked through the American company Adventures Within Reach and they farmed it out to African Scenic Safaris in Tanzania. Both were great to deal with and my guide Francis was amazing.

@marlanek4283 Месяц назад

??Did anyone have issues with all meds+ vitamins need to travel on the plane in ACTUAL bottles?? That is space I dont wanna waste- good to ask!!

@SnareMan Месяц назад

I hadn't seen people bring actual bottles. I have since found an even more compact pill organizer. You can check out my recent travel medicine video
