GEER
FOR ALPINE WINTER...
Basicaly;
Its different to spring/summer mountaineering. Most
online info is only really for the spring summer season,
so here is some which may be useful to the winter climber.
The
dangers of cold injury over extended periods of time
can be high with or without decent equipment. Pay attention
to your feet especialy. If you cant feel or move your
toes its time to get medical attention.
In
this section only geer that has been tried and tested
is recommended, and if possible, a 'budget' option will
also be put down, to give those with a restricted budget
a feel for what they need.
