Is Mount Kilimanjaro have a cool climate all year?
Mount Kilimanjaro has a diverse climate that varies with altitude. While the lower slopes experience a warm and humid climate, temperatures decrease significantly at higher elevations, leading to a cooler climate, particularly in the alpine zone. The summit can be quite cold year-round, often with snow and ice. Thus, while cooler than many regions, the mountain does not have a uniformly cool climate throughout.

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.
