Helpfulness
When you climb Kilimanjaro, the night arrives early (around 6:30 or 7) and once it gets dark there's not a whole lot to do except eat dinner, get cleaned up and go to sleep (preceded, of course, by some stargazing in the amazingly clear night-time skies; wrap up well, since it gets very cold after dark!).
However, if you're feeling like a small celebration on the way down, some of the ranger huts, such as that at Millennium Camp, have cold beer and soft drinks; although they are pricy, they might be just the way to finish the Kilimanjaro hike!
Dress Code: The dress code at Millennium camp is whatever grubby clothing you've been wearing all week; the great thing about mountainside drinking is the casual attire!

Normally I will sit and watch the other foreign teams arriving into the camp and make comments on their accents. If I feel like i want to have a bit of fun i will chase the big crows around the camp...that is all.
Dress Code: I normally wore long johns and walking socks, you must be wearing a bandana.

I'm not gonna do it, I told myself before I left. It's too expensive, can hike 2 months in Nepal for the same amount of money. But when the bus approached Moshi and I stared up at Kili, I knew I...
