Where in Africa can you find ice year round?
I believe that Mt. Kilamajaro is in Africa somewhere, and given its height, being a mountain, it probably has snow all year round. Mount Kilimanjaro, in Tanzania, Africa, is Africa's highest mountain. Although it very close to the equator it is high enough that the temperature on the summit remains below freezing all year round. On top there is snow and small but permanent glacier of ice. Yep you can find it on Mount Kilimanjaro which is 19340 feet.

Mount Kilimanjaro is situated on the Equator, so in a tropical climate and that is also the climate at ground level. But everywhere on Earth, temperatures drop when you go higher. That's why airplane pilots always tell you during the flight that it is minus 50 degrees outside. And it is because of its height that mount Kilimanjaro gradually gets colder when you climb up, and why at summit level, it is covered with snow.
