High-sickness is the
common problem that you find as reason not reaching the summit.
You can do few things to avoid at least a little:
- walk rather 6 than 5 days
- drink at least 4 litre every day
- walk slow, even 6 days give enough time
It is very cold up the Kilimanjaro, compared to previous years
it has more snow this year. You will walk through some snow, but
proper hiking-shoes (rubber-sole) with walking-sticks will do
it.
All missing kind of equipment can be hired or bought before
the climb, but what you can bring from home, you'll feel more
familiar, i.e. warm sleeping-bag, warm cloth, gloves, warm cap,
it's very windy!
