Tips for trekkers

Let people know where you’re going and what time you expect to come back. Check the weather before proceeding. If the weather is bad, abort the trip.

Do your research on the trip and ask advice from people who know the trail.

Pack light but take lots of water, electrolytes and food. When you realise your water is not enough anymore, go back. Think about it, if you get lost or if you take a fall, will the water you have be enough to sustain you? If somebody falls sick or is not able to continue with the trek, go back together. Don’t leave him or her behind alone to continue with the trek. If you climbed up there as a team, you climb down as a team.
