Re: Kili - Tips for dust control
We had one guy wear shorts all the way to Barafu Camp. Most people wore long, light pants and either short sleeves or one/two long sleeve thin layers. It just depends on how how cold you get and how you're able to adjust on the trail.WarDamnPanic wrote:I am also doing the Machame route in August. What kind of clothing should I wear for the climb?
