 Blind Climbers 

Eric Weihenmayer climbed Kilimanjaro with Nickson before he went on to climb Mt. Everest.

"Recently I put together a climb of Kilimanjaro in which five blind people from around the world stood on the summit, including the first blind African, Douglas Sidialo. Our guide was Nickson Moshi of Tanzania. Nickson organized a first class expedition. He and his staff are very professional and kind. His knowledge of the mountain and various routes is extensive, and his logistical expertise is impressive. And on top of it all, the food he and his staff prepared was the best I've ever eaten on a mountain. I highly recommend him."

-Erik Weihenmayer

 

Nickson was the guide for 8 blind climbers who summited Kilimanjaro in June, 2009

 Special Olympian Climbers
