Clothing for Women to Climb the Muntain

1. Base Layer: Humidity RegulatorThe first layer is the goal not only to absorb sweat, but also makes it evaporates into the next layer. So I do not wear cotton has advised because it will absorb sweat, but can not vaporize.The clothes do not sweat evaporates = drenched drenched wet and smell like a savory sauce oncom not stale. Been there and do not want anymore hihi.Moreover, cotton bahun can increase the risk of hypothermia. I never wear cotton as a base layer under a raincoat. Though the water did not penetrate, but because of sweating and do not evaporate, I was feeling cold.For the base layer, the better wear wool or synthetic materials such as polyester. Because these materials are not only absorbs sweat, but also transfer them to the outer layer of clothing.The result: our body is dry when sweating, and clothes will dry quickly after that. And most important: DO NOT SMELL :))Wearing a sports shirt as mas handsomebudhi_setyawan also be, as long as the material is polyster.Memakai sport shirt like thisbudhi_setyawan handsome mas also be, as long as the material is polyester.

2. Insulating Layer

The insulating layer functions for the "trap" of hot air near the body so we will stay warm. For this layer, I love the natural fiber materials such as sweaters made from goose down (down).The material is very light and small when packed. But it can only be used when the dry state. But not long ago I saw the website the north face there is a technology called thermoball, material resembling down but can still be used even if wet.Materials other than the popular down there fleece, in Indonesia are generally referred to as a 'polar'. This Polar actually is one of the technology's per-fleece. But ordinary, Indonesian people like to call the brand as the name of the object.Fleece is also lightweight, retain heat well, but is rather large when packed because the material tends to be thick. Fleece jackets are usually much cheaper than down.For winter, just replace it with a second layer of material down or thicker fleece. Usually there is a level of it really mild, chill, cold; kinds of chips maicih.

3. Shell Layer 

The last layer is very important to the weather on the mountain that can not be guessed. This layer is important, because it prevents the water still to two lower layers. If water has entered, then destroyed already this layering function.Shell can be windproof jacket (anti-wind) used to waterproof windproof jacket-with-breathable kinds of technologies that can cost to buy used motorcycles.When buying jakcet shell, make sure the size fits when we use two layers underneath.Better to use a shell that beritpe windproof / Waterproof / Breathable: This type that I suggest. Technologies such as Gore-Tex included in this category. This type of hold water, withstand wind, but still able to throw the steam out. So while wearing them in the hot sun would not be too hot.There are also cheaper types like only windproof, or windproof / waterproof. But for outdoor activities are certainly a high level of movement, I suggest the type that make it more comfortable breathable. More expensive does indeed, but not going to regret it when your on the mountain.That's me with 3 layers and outer shell jacket.That'swiranurmansyah with 3 layers and outer shell jacket.

4. Additional layer - layer style guide.

This is the layer that we can take it for narcissistic. But do not wear fitting way yes, passport photographs wrote. Have fun! :))To subordinate, actually the same as the first layer of clothing. The important thing is quick-drying material, and if possible all waterproof and breathable, so do not bother to bring a poncho all.So, how your clothes while on the mountain?

Hello girls who want to climb the mountain. This time I wanted to share tips to climb the mountain for us, with incresing interest of women to climb the mountain. Who this post possible stage novice climber.

We start from the physical preparation tips yes:

1. A month before making the climb a mountain, the most important thing to do is SPORTS !! Remember, mountain climbing is not only walking, but climbing with luggage carrier is quite heavy. Suitable sport is jogging, push-ups, sit-ups, back-ups, pull-ups and swimming for breathing exercises.

2. Look at the date of the climb you, whether coincide when you're coming "guests". If coincident, I suggest do not have to climb first. But if you feel strong, yes please. Just so you know how to clean it and store properly in the carrier. I will tell you later below.

The Next Tips Baggage MANDATORY: 

1. Carrier

Carrier is a large backpack that has a different capacity ranging from 30-90 liters. Carrier is different from the backpack / backpack because it is made with a special system. Special system in question is, this bag has adjustable size of his back, have straps / straps and buckle at the waist and chest. The goal is that the load is not 100% covered by the shoulder, but divided in the stomach. If you want to buy a carrier not to be tempted by the color or its design, but see first whether the woman series (especially for women) or not. For 2 days 1 night trip, the carrier should take 40-55 liters.

2. Clothes Up / Dress Road

Want fashionable fit mountain climbing? Could really really. Now it's a lot of quick dry clothes that have a lot of choices of colors. My favorite color to climb that mountain black, blue, pink. Quick Dry T-Shirt is a thin, light, and as the name implies, dry fast. Just imagine if we carry cotton clothes kept wet with sweat and when going to the sun, no sun. Dizziness right? If cleaning quick shirts, we quite awhile winds are dry and ready to use again the next day. Oh yes, if you do not have a long-sleeved shirt cleaning quick, can wear to cover the hand cuffs. In addition to protecting from the sun, cuffs also protect us from allergies itching several plants in the woods.

3. Pants Road

I had become used to the way everywhere wear shorts and uncomfortable when wearing trousers. However, good pants worn when riding a real mountain pants or cargo pants. Me and my friends in the organization nature lovers choose to remain wear shorts because it can move more freely. EITS, but we wear leggings again anyway as an extra. Leggings are used instead of leggings for a trip to the mall which is made from cotton and crowded motive but leggings are made of latex that it is black. Yummy latex leggings are not easily torn, dries quickly and can not be infiltrated leech. (Yep, one of the risks go up the mountain is a leech infestation. When we hit, drops enough fluids such as Dettol hand wash gel / Antis. Leeches will come off by itself. Do not try to remove the leeches are still sticky in our skin, so later ulceration tablets )

4. Sleeping Bag

The sleeping bag / sleeping bag is innate mandatory when hiking. However there are quite a few climbers carry holster. Cor. In the mountains it can be extreme coldness and gloves doang really can not keep us warm. Sleeping bag also helps us to sleep more comfortable, especially the part which there is a layer of polar. Bed so DELICIOUS, warm and comfortable. The next day, our bodies are already fresh and ready again to climb that night and slept quite comfortably.

5. Nightwear

Never sleep with clothes worn during road. It's a big no no. Imagine it's not already in use sweat shirt one day and used again to sleep. Uuhhhhh. Joroknya. If hiking, I always bring long pants / long john, short sleeve cotton shirt / long sleeves, socks, sleep, sleep gloves, hats of wool for head and ears warm. All have been used, just go into the sleeping bag.

6. Shoes Trekking

While still a candidate member of the organization nature lovers, my senior said that the most important is protected when climbing legs. Why the feet? Because the foot is part of the body that are trying hardest to withstand loads during ascent or when descending the mountain. Therefore, protect your feet with good shoes that trekking shoes. Trekking shoes can be bought in stores outdoor gear. The specificity of this shoe is a high shoe cover (protect) the ankle, more waterproof and soles of his jagged / anti-slip.

7. Gaiter

Gaiter is gaiters of leeches and snakes. This gaiter has a hook for shoes that are not easily separated. Although I was told to wear latex leggings to protect the feet from leeches, I also still wearing gaiter. To be more safe

8. Tent / Flysheet

If this needs to think baseball was told again yes. Because if baseball is tent / flysheet, want to sleep where? Under the tree? Hehehe. Could you make a bivouac of twigs and leaves, but not as comfortable tent. Choose?

9. Trangia Stoves

 

We used to take a small gas stove when climbing a mountain and not rely on a campfire. Trangia spirit is fueled stove complete with a cook rice and side dishes plus a small pot for cooking warm water. Usually we bring two stoves and a trangia. So cook faster.

10. Sandal Mount

Who says baseball mountain to be wearing sandals? May anyway, as long as it wore not fit to climb, but while isthirahat in camp. The cool baseball going out of the tent to grab the goods and cook but wear shoes. Instead of nothing. Sandal mountain is less safe to use for climbing and its greater risk of injury. If you do not have sandals mountain, in the camp could wear flip-flops anyway.

11. Windbreaker Jacket

If you do not wear a sweater into a mountain made of wool. Yeah warm, but when exposed to rain and water, jacket so heavy and difficult to dry. Choose a windbreaker jacket which is also sold in stores outdoor gear. This windbreaker jacket is designed waterproof / waterproof but still warm in it. I am happy to collect colorful windbreaker jacket. There are purple, blue, pink etc;)

12. Glove

Buy cheap wrote gloves at the roadside. Because these gloves to be used the way up. When climbing a lot of movement to climb and we have to hold the wood or plants that are near us as a handle. If not observant, we can well-known plants that make our hands so itchy and hot. Yes safe disposable gloves, right?

13. Headlamp

When did the climb at night or summit attack of dawn, certainly need the lights to light the way. Headlamp also facilitate our movement because looped into the head. So that brought up the mountain is not a flashlight headlamp yes.

14. Maps, Compass & Whistles

The three items above must be taken for navigation and communication tool for us to climb. Brought just in case ya.

15. Pockets Garbage / Trash Bag

Do not forget what brought rise, to be brought down again. Prepare trash bag for storing garbage during ascent, taken down and later discarded after arriving in the village again.

16. Mattress

The mattress pad is useful for us to sit / cook in camp and as bedding in a tent. Make sure the mattress did not miss it. 

17. Personal Drugs

Although we are healthy fit when departing climb, we could be in the middle of the ascent we fall ill. Therefore, do not forget to bring personalized medicine. 

18. Raincoat

When the rain hit, we can not constantly be silent. If the rain all day how? Want to freeze to death? Ascent should continue to wear a raincoat. Good raincoat is that two pieces, there are clothes and celananya.Bisa purchased in outdoor gear yes.
