Hiking skills on different terrain roads

Here are some tips for walking on different roads:

Dirt road

(1) Road features:

This kind of road is very common, and the main reason for this is that the weathering of the stone and the uncovered mountain bark are formed by people's long stamping. Maybe you think this is the best way to go, what can be noted! It is such a mistake. In the rainy season, this kind of road is the legendary dirt road. It is very easy to fall and hurt your knee.

(2) Walking experience:

After sun exposure, the surface of the dirt road has been dried, but in fact it has already sucked enough water. At this time, it is very easy to get dangerous when going up and down the mountain. When walking on this kind of road, the soles must be gripped and the trekking poles must be fully utilized. The fulcrum, so as not to pay attention to step deep into the mud. In addition, there is a large temperature difference between day and night in spring and autumn. After the rain and snow days, the earth road surface is very easy to freeze, and the risk factor is relatively high. When this situation occurs, we must make full use of trekking poles and things that can be climbed. Pay attention to the time when climbing objects. It is very important to ensure that the fulcrum is solid.

Stone road

(1) Road features:

This road is mainly built during the late Qing Dynasty and the Republic of China. The main road is the ancient road, which is artificially laid by different sizes of bluestone. Due to the age, many people walked. The surface of the Qingshiban Road has become very smooth. In the event of an accident prone to rain or snow, it can be ashamed, crippling, and severely broken.

(2) Walking experience:

After the rain, in addition to wearing non-slip shoes, the mood should be relaxed. When walking, the center of gravity should not be too far, and the direction of gravity should be perpendicular to the slate on the ground. Use trekking poles as much as possible. When carrying a large bag, the center of gravity of the bag should be below the middle, and try to hold the wall or the tree as far as possible. Be sure to use trekking poles when you are downhill and focus slightly forward. The feet fall as far as possible on the gap between the slate, or on the roadside vegetation. There is a little distance between two people to prevent one person from falling and then shoveling several. After the snow, it is best to use four-toothed crampons. If crampons are not used, the feet must fall on the roadside roots or vegetation. The trekking poles are indispensable.

Jump stone

(1) Road features:

The so-called jumping stone is no obvious road. The so-called "road" is mainly formed by the valley gully, which is formed by long-term rain erosion and flash floods. Walking on this kind of road, you need to jump on the stones and go forward. The spun yarns, creeks, and boulder staggered and staggered.

(2) Walking experience:

Overcoming the fear of jumping stone is the most important, which requires attention. In the rainy season, before the heavy rain comes, do not go to the canyon to jump stone after the heavy rain has just passed out, beware of flash floods. Prepare a pair of hard-soled climbing shoes at the end. Before jumping off the stone, check whether the laces are loose. Then tighten the backpack shoulder strap and belt so that the backpack is close to the back so that the backpack will not shake and the center of gravity will not be steady when jumping. Caused to slip. When jumping stones, the eyes should pay attention to observing the situation in front of them, accurately determine the next foothold, and pay attention to observing the long-term traces of dark marks left on some stones. In addition, be sure to clean the soles of your shoes. If your soles are covered with sand, be careful with your knees and front teeth.

Wading

(1) Road features:

The so-called wading is the terrain that meets rivers and valleys and must cross it.

(2) Walking experience:

When you can't figure out the depth of the river, use a small wooden stick about the height of your own to explore the road. Avoid barefoot and do not take off your shoes more safely. When stones in the river are available, dry stones are to be chosen and wet stones can easily slip. And make sure that the stone is not rocky (it can also be probed with a small stick) and move the center of gravity. Some rocks are easy to shake and can cause fracture accidents. Note that sometimes the river does not seem to be rushed or deep. In fact, the water flow is very acute and the river is very deep. Be sure to test it first. Do not cross the river in the direction of water flow. You should sideways while minimizing the focus. Prevent being overthrown.

When wading, the essentials of action are "low center of gravity, spreading arms, and applique feet," and "low center of gravity" in order to stand firmer, "show arms" for balance, and "applique feet" to require feet to stand on the bottom of the water. To break into the ground, in order to better understand the status of the bottom;

bush

(1) Road features:

There are many kinds of bushes, which can be roughly divided into natural bushes and artificial bushes. Natural shrubs are mainly distributed in dense jungles. There are many kinds of shrubs and are low in height. Generally, the soil is soft and slippery, and there may be swamps. The risk is greater. The artificial shrubs are mainly distributed on dry hillsides, and are artificially planted. For wind and soil conservation, the location is generally dry and sandy soil, and it seems to be hard. In fact, there is a slippery flow in some areas.

(2) Walking experience:

Take bushes, hats, and pull locks on the jackets to keep the distance between the players at least 1.5 meters away to prevent the teammates who had fallen in front of them to bounce back and hurt themselves. Always remind the teammates behind to note the distance is easy to get lost! When hiking through natural bushes, it is best to have ancillary equipment and experienced team leader or local guide to explore the road first. Pay attention to bushes with more short stings and more mosquitoes. It is recommended to wear high-slip anti-slip soles with large lines and deeper and concaver. Jungle boots, to wear long-sleeved, long pants, pay attention to the protection of the face. Artificial shrubs are taller and more thorny than natural shrubs and bushes. It is recommended to prepare gloves (preferably leather), long-sleeved high-neck scratch-resistant trousers and good non-slip climbing shoes, and try to walk the soil when hiking such bushes. On slippery, wide roads, it is best to hold branches that are fresh and able to support hand-operated branches. Change hands and sticks should be firm and stay steady.

Climbing on steep slopes (uphill, downhill)

In the face of the complex terrain and routes in the mountains, we must not just bury our heads and walk behind our heads to look at the road. We must rationally choose the direction and route of advancement. I remember a hiking tip "If you don't want to jump, don't skip, don't rush, don't walk, don't walk, don't walk, don't go soft, tight before you go, go slowly and go slowly. You don't look at the scene, you don't walk at the sight." Still justified. Taking Wutai Mountain as an example, when walking between the tops of mountains, because of the wide line of sight, it will not be lost, and many road sections can be cut straight. However, straight cuts often encounter relatively large elevations, consume a lot of physical strength, and are particularly evident at high altitudes. At this time, they should be flexible in choosing between straight slopes, and then quickly return to the way they were before. You can save energy and it's faster.

When climbing on a steep slope, Xie Gongkai's reasoning should be well applied. When you go uphill, you should choose the heel to fall on a hard protruding rock, so that the entire sole of the foot forms a plane in the part; on the other hand, when you go down, the front foot should select the protruding stone as the resting point. This will not only keep the body in balance but also save energy. In addition, on a steep mountain path, every step should be down to earth, because if you slide under your feet, you have to balance and need more physical strength than usual.

Progress and rest

1, warm up before the trip to do enough, start slow down should be slow.

Before each activity, you must actively take a 5-10 minute warm-up exercise. This is a must for scientific exercise methods.

Before the trip, you need to spend less time preparing for exercise, so that the lungs can effectively absorb oxygen in advance, increase muscle blood circulation, and make the heart have a movement adaptation process, so that you can adjust the body into a suitable state for mountaineering and hiking. It also prevents many special conditions and injuries.

Don't force your speed. It takes a long time to walk on the mountain road. It is a movement that is far away. Some people rushed to the top of the mountain, so they started rushing to get on the fast track like running. People using this method had more rest times, and not only did the speed slow down in the second half of the way, but some of them were even too tired to walk.

At the beginning, the speed is a little slower, and the body has a process of adaptation. Usually, within 30 minutes from the beginning, the team should be given a rest adjustment time. The team members can use this rest adjustment time to adjust the reduction of laces, backpacks and clothing. Increased.

2, regular travel time, fatigue is now to rest.

Mountaineering rest methods, small breaks and long rest. Regardless of the small rest and large rest, such a mountaineering repetition rest mode has only one purpose: to prevent fatigue, to allow the body to fully rest, and to restore the spirit is more conducive to walking.

Usually, walking on foot is usually a 40 to 50 minute walk and a rest of 10 to 15 minutes. It is recommended that beginners take a small break for 20 to 25 minutes and a rest of 3 to 5 minutes. This method can make people feel less tired when walking for a long time. Of course, it is also necessary to take into account the team members' physical conditions and follow-up strokes to adapt and flexibly allocate rest time. Even if you can't walk for fifteen or six minutes, it's fine to see a nice view or stop and take a rest when you want to take a break.

The best way to rest is to "rest before getting tired." For a more comfortable and safe journey, reducing the feeling of fatigue, it is necessary to save physical strength to the end. However, if the number of breaks is too frequent and lengthy, I do not know when I will reach my destination. It is even more tiring. Therefore, in order to control the pace of walking and the rest of your walk, please carefully record the record of your walking time and grasp the individual walking section.

Usually a small break in the hiking and trekking course is appropriate within 3-5 minutes. When standing and resting, adjust the joints and breathe. This can be used to supplement the action and moisture. You can also wait for other players.

For long periods of rest, you can remove the backpack, stand and adjust your breathing and return to normal to sit and rest. Rest your body as much as you can during rest to allow your body to rest. How to sit comfortably, even if it is lying down and rest may also be. Find a place on the tree, on the rocks, and rest in the most relaxed and comfortable position. If the posture is not correct, not only can not fully rest, once the temperature drops, prone to sudden unexpected events such as leg cramps. If you can't find a suitable place to rest, you can sit on a backpack. The back of the backpack is placed in a stable place with the back facing upwards, so that the position of the waist can be increased to sit more comfortably. To avoid muscle cold during the break, the muscles are cold, especially if the rest point is chosen to face the cold wind ridge, it is also easy to cause muscle cramps.

There are many things you can do during your break, such as eating, adding water, doing stretching exercises, confirming the route, adding and subtracting clothes, and so on. It is recommended that you take active rest and take the initiative to do stretching exercises to stretch the calf, calf, back, and other muscles that are frequently used during walking. Even if it took ten to fifteen seconds to do it, it would be helpful to prevent fatigue.
