Equipment

There are no weight requirements for the equipment in the competition groups, but everyone must bring something to drink, your phone, a windproof jacket and a buff. The same requirements apply to the hikers, but they are welcome to bring more food, drink, and clothing as they’re more likely to be outside for a longer amount of time. Plan everything in advance and make sure to follow the weather forecast. The conditions can change along the way and the temperature can get quite low the higher you go.

The mountain rules

Be prepared.

Leave word of your route.

Be weatherwise.

Be equipped for bad weather and frost.
