FINAL film from my experience climbing Mount Kilimanjaro in Tanzania!!! HUGE THANKS to the Kiliwarrior team and Pat for being a YES MAN. Hope everyone's New Year goals are off to a killer start, the best is yet to come!

Well done Erik. Keep up the good work. Thanks for showing us this.

[@Slashplite]

so what's the next trip? :D

[@neweverymorningmercy3491]

Erik, this brought tears to me eyes. I've been watching you since way back in the tiny apartment and you were lifeguarding at a pool. To see you on top of Kilimanjaro, literally on top, of the world is so symbolic. You've worked hard, worked through the obstacles, handled the difficulties and heartbreak of life, believed in yourself, kept at it and gone, up, up, up, and you always stress that you don't do it alone, that you have people in front, beside and behind you all the way. What an inspiration you are my young friend! Keep spreading your message!

[@NatureScapes]

You are Great Sir, Real inspiration for me. You are responsible for one push that brings Dream and reality more Closer. Keep dreaming and keep achieving forever. Godspeed.

[@musthafabakar9427]

This video is not just about climbing a mountain... this is about the struggle, persistence, hard work etc. needed to achieve our goals in life. Kudos Erik! You made it.

[@erikvanconover]

Thank you for that !

[@Missy-fr8im]

Yes! There's something beautiful about perseverance. What a great picture of that.

[@debraladams9140]

I successfully climbed Kili in 2015 at age 55. And the cold--like you--I can't describe how bitterly cold it was (and I'm Canadian!). On my ascent, in the middle of the night, I thought I would just stop, keel over and die and my team mates would find my body the next day when coming back down the mountain. That's how cold it was!! I persevered and made it to Uhuru Peak. Congrats to anyone who treks Kili. She''s a beast to be sure!

[@DDR88767]

Man this is an awesome comment.

[@warrenruud4060]

The camera crew deserves a lot of credit! Great video, especially the glaciers, and carrying all that gear up the hill is a task.. I walked up Kilimanjaro on the Lemosho route a few years ago when I was sixty. We did it in seven days, not nine. A few suggestions if you choose to take the walk. First, take the longest route you can for which you have the time and money-that will increase your odds of success. Don’t dwell on the cold or the elevation; it only makes it worse for you and more so on those you’re walking with. Occasionally you will be breathing hard and you will be a bit chilly, just like everyone else. Instead, go slow; look at the sights, chat with the guide and porters, enjoy the trip. Also, book a local company, it’s way cheaper and you will learn more about Tanzania. (Thirty-five yrs ago I was a Peace Corps volunteer in East Africa.) Don’t wear safari gear like the narrator-our porters told me it’s insulting. Learn a little bit of Swahili online, the porters will love it. Use your old boots, old parka, and old sleeping bag, and plan on giving them to your porters (who desperately need them) at the end of your trip, and do that away from the guide. Otherwise many guides will take the donated gear and sell it. And if you tip money, then the guide and the company most likely will get all of it. Don’t be intimidated by the Western Breach. At its worst places, it’s barely class 2, and using even helmets is overkill. Everyone in my group made it to Uhuru: Haraka haraka haina baraka, Pole pole ndio mwendo. The trip is fun, and you should take this walk.

[@lancejackson3524]

Went there in 2017. To me, the porters are just amazing people. Great companions. They can never get enough recognition.

[@pastorpresent1]

Erik, I lived on Kilimanjaro (at Marangu) as a teenager. Back in the the 1960s, most of the climbing expeditions began at Marangu, so I was in touch with the whole experience of climbers regularly passing my friends and me on the soccer field. In my own attempt for the summit just before coming back to the States, I got past the third hut to 17,500 feet, an hour and a half from the top, but had thrown up 30 times in 30 minutes. Altitude sickness hit me big time, so I was forced to turn back. Still, this is a mountain climb that is exquisitely beautiful, and doable for many people with good health who do not get crippled by the altitude. It is one of life’s sweet pleasures, as you have shown in this EXCELLENT video. No need for ropes or pitons, it’s in a stable country with lovely people for the most part, seasoned porters and guides are there to assist, and this would be a terrific bucket list goal for some of your viewers here. I have traveled now in 40 countries, and I often think the most beautiful place I have ever been is lying in the alpine meadow at about 9400 feet, just above the first hut, called Mandara. A close second place would be getting toward the top of the gorgeous mountain and beholding the royal blue sky during the daytime, darker because there is less atmosphere and you’re closer to outerspace up there. Go try it! Na bahati mzuri! (And good luck!)

[@smilewithmel]

The landscape of Mount Kilimanjaro looked so epic and amazing. The glaciers looked spectacular. ♡♡♡

Come to Nepal and climb Mt. Everest or Mt. Annapurna! You will enjoy a lot. Lots of love from the country of Himalayas, Nepal.

I have a deep fascination with Everest and I see Kili as the starting place of that journey one day. Just watching you hurt and go through this very real journey, makes me wonder how people go from here onward. Thanks for the vid, I love travelling and experiencing new places, so I'll be sure to watch your other postings also.

I describe altitude sickness as the worst hangover you’ve ever had...and drinking more won’t help. It’s difficult and painful to do anything. Your head pounds, you feel like vomiting, and you have no energy. If you ever take young children on vacation at high elevation and they say they don’t feel good then remember your worst hangover and that’s probably how they feel. Oh yeah, and your fingers tingle like someone is poking them with needles. It’s an awful feeling.

Watching you struggle makes my head hurt just like then. I’m in shivers at when you talk about your dream . It feels like my dream! The journey changed my life . I’m helping children in Tz for the last 6 years . Built a school , supply with School essentials, fundraise money, save individuals children . This is my life’s purpose . My life has a new meaning , new purpose thanks to my friend Tomasz Kielin whose life dream was to stand on Kili. He succeeded, I didn’t. I felt disappointed. BUT, now thanks to that trip I’m a different person .
