During summit night on Kili temps fall well below freezing so blowing water out of the tube of the camel back helps prevent it from freezing in the tube so you can still drink. The Granola bars become rock hard during summit night as well so breaking them up into bite sized pieces ahead of time makes them easier to eat.

Never look up because you start in pitch black on summit night. The only thing you can see is the guys feet in front of you, so you really have no gauge of how much farther you have to walk until you look up and see the headlamps of people hundreds and thousands of feet above you. This can hurt your spirits.

Don't look up on summit night. If you bring granola or some other kind of bar with you for summit night, break it into small pieces before you start up. If you are using a camel pack on summit night, blow the water back through the tube after you drink from it.

keeps it from freezing in the tube.
