My recipe for climbing Mt. Kilimanjaro
– Equal parts self-confidence, stupity, and faith
– 825 mg Diamox
– Several cups of hot sugar water
Mix all ingredients in large bucket, drink down quickly before it freezes, and save the bucket for the inevitable vomiting and/or diarrhea that will occur.
(Thanks to the above, I successfully reached Uhuru Peak at approx. 7:20 AM on July 29th. More details to follow…)
