Mount Kenya is a broad, large symmetrical volcano cone whose
diameter at the base is about 12 km it was formed between
2.6 and 3.1 million years ago by eruptions of successive
layers of volcanic lava and agglomerate from a central vent
in the earth surface. Mount Kenya is climbed at all times
of year if possible however it is best to try to avoid the
two rainy seasons that usually start in mid March and lasts
through till mid June. As on any high mountain, proper equipment
is vital for a safe and enjoyable climb. Even with porters,
climbers should carry some basic equipment with them at
all times, including rain gear, spare jersey, water and
first aid kit.
High altitude problems are caused through the inability
of the human body to adjust to a through various forms to
the often more fatal pulmonary and cerebral oedemus (Hape
and Hace) the later being less common. Young males seem
to be most badly affected.
