Why does mountain climber need oxygen mask?

Mountain climbers need oxygen masks at high altitudes because the air becomes thinner and contains less oxygen, leading to hypoxia which can result in dizziness, shortness of breath, confusion, and even death. Oxygen masks help climbers supplement the oxygen they need to maintain proper breathing and prevent altitude sickness.

What do you need to climb Mount Kilimanjaro?

The park requires climbers to go with a certified guide, at least. Most climbers will hire a whole team to help them, mostly porters who carry the gear. Climbing the mountain takes 4-7 days depending on the route, and the climate ranges from tropical rainforest to frozen alpine desert, so a lot of gear is necessary. Climbers need camping gear including tent, ground pad, and sleeping bag that is good to -10 degrees C. A means to transport and purify water is necessary; usually porters will take care of this for you. Clothing must include thermal underwear for sleeping at night, and layers for the daytime. Temperatures approaching the summit are well below freezing and can be windy, so winter clothing including coat, warm hat, and gloves are necessary. To climb the mountain, you also need a passport and a visa to visit Tanzania. You will probably need vaccinations. You need a guide. You need the proper registration forms filled out and fees paid with park officials (again, your guide will take care of this).

What do you use to climb on ice?

There is very specific gear for ice climbing. Aside from winter clothes, (boots, jacket, hat, gloves, pants, etc.) ice climbers need tools, too. Generally, ice climbers have 2 ice picks (an adze and a hammer), one in each hand, as well as crampons for their boots. Crampons are basically extreme cleats, that hold/dig into the ice. Ice climbers also need safety gear, such as helmets, rope, carabiners, leashes, and assorted ice screws (bolts) for fall protection.
