My hunts with CMS have all been late Sept or into mid October. 28*C at night, and can be over 40*C during the day.
I happen to like the heat; and handle it pretty well. Makes packing stupid light as you need no long sleeve anything or coats.
2017 had some very warm weather, a few nights around 35 and days in mid 40’s.
We have always started early, like 4am and taken a fairly long break mid day unless on really fresh tracks. Afternoons generally get back to camp around 8pm for dinner. Its long days which also happens to suit me well.
I take a powder sports drink electrolytes mix for day and a small battery fan for night . I use rechargeable batteries and a backpacking solar charger that will do the batteries or a phone and stick it on the roof of the truck mid day to top things off.
In Dande North, Mururu camp is closed by late season and I have always hunted out of the main Pedza Pasi camp, although I have fished several days after hunting from Matambo, right on the Zambezi. Pedza has OK internet service, and they run a generator early morning, mid day and evening for lights, refrigeration, WiFi. Down side at Pedza is the block wall buildings hold the heat, they moved one persons bed out on the veranda for some relief. Matambo is tents and up on a ridge/bluff overlooking the river and I think is cooler temp wise.
