Autumn Mountaineering
Precautions: 10 must-see details for mountaineering
Mountaineering in autumn is both elegant and healthy, but you should take some measures to protect yourself before climbing .
1. Check your body before climbing. In particular, middle-aged and elderly people and patients with chronic diseases should have a comprehensive physical examination to avoid accidents.
2. Know the mountaineering route in advance, plan the rest and dining places, and preferably have an acquaintance lead the way to prevent blindly rushing in the mountains.
3. Be familiar with the climate characteristics on the mountain, and try to get a reliable weather forecast before climbing. Bring clothes to keep warm in the morning and evening to prevent colds.
4. Don’t sit on the damp ground or in the air vents when you are resting. When sweating, you can loosen your collar a little and don’t take off your clothes and hats to prevent colds.
5. It is necessary to do some warm-up exercises before climbing. When climbing, keep your mind calm and move slowly. Especially the elderly and infirm people should pay more attention to this, and take a 10-minute rest after walking for half an hour to avoid excessive fatigue.
6. Mountaineering is not for competition, but for fitness or recreation. So if you don’t count the speed, you just want to be happy.
