seems i only see comments from most people climbing in dec-feb. i am going up at the end of june and was wondering about how cold am i really going to be (very, i'm sure). lots of sales on winter stuff right now so i am working on my "layers", especially for that night at crater camp. so.. how cold?? (F) thanks, kh

I smade it to summit on 1-4-08. I'd say summit night was probably around 0 F.

Not only will it be cold for you, but it is right during the middle of the rainy season.

i think rainy season ends in May. at least i hope im going up june 2nd, with a night in the crater before summit day

Hello,

I found the following site that gives temperatures at different altitudes.

http://www.snow-forecast.com/resorts/Kilimanjaro/6day/top

It forecasts about 6 days in advance - hope you find it useful.

Cheers,

Tim

BTW - I expect to summit on the 7th and 8th of March; will supply a full report upon my return in mid-March.
