As I travel much of each year, I use packable daypacks nearly every day on those trips. Often it carries my laptop and other essentials for short trips.
Often I use it to carry my daily groceries.

This 16 liter backpack is built from waterproof Cordura® with sealed internal seams and sealing zippers. Incredibly light and seriously equipped, Freefly16 is ready for whatever’s ahead.

Mount Kenya is the second-highest in Africa, after Kilimanjaro.
It’s about 150 kilometres (93 mi) north-northeast of the capital Nairobi.
I’m looking at using Mt Kenya as an acclimatization hike immediately prior to Kilimanjaro.
Mt Kenya takes 5 days and reaches a high point of 4985 metres over a trek of about 50 kilometres.
So far I’ve been talking to Adventure Alternatives and have been very happy with their response. And they’ve been quite flexible to help me fit in this climb just before Kili.
My rendezvous with the Kili group in Arusha is September 7th.
DETAILS – Mount Kenya Traverse
30th August – 3rd September
Price starts at £1,095pp ($1355) plus extras. Much less expensive than Kili.

Though not as bad as Trump’s first Secretary of the Interior, Zinke, the current guy in the position — David Bernhardt — is a former oil industry lobbyist. A Petro-toxin defender.
He’s supposed to be defending America’s natural resources; Bureau of Land Management, United States Geological Survey, and the National Park Service.

I contend that Manaslu is as scenic as the Everest Base Camp trek.
And it’s far less crowded. Less developed.
A sidetrip to Tsum Valley is a recommended add-on.
The downside? Independent trekking is not allowed on the Manaslu Circuit. You must be guided.
You can hike to Everest independently.
