Vertigo
Peering above 19,000 feet, Mount Kilimanjaro is well established the highest point in Africa and the tallest free-standing mountain on Earth. Further, this icon is covered in snow thanks to its phenomenal heights, also possessing glaciers. All this is made even more incredible by the fact that this mountain is positioned within the tropics, very near to the Equator.

Fathomless Creation
Certainly, temperatures at night in this mammoth mountain often reach to -20 degrees Fahrenheit. Even with such freezing climates, the glaciers and snowy cover are both melting away. This counterintuitive phenomenon has been proceeding since the 20th century began, with the diminishing ice levels having been recorded from 1912 onwards. The ice started disappearing even faster from the 50s onwards.
