– Climbing: Stretch your toes slightly outward and lift your feet slightly higher. Walk through the sole of your foot, but hold the safe place with your hands and place the center of your body slightly in front of you.
– Lowering: Pull and bend the knee so that it does not bend, and be careful not to tilt the center of gravity back and forth. Keep your body balanced with the next foot in mind, and take a step from the tip of your foot on the downhill road.
– Walking speed: Keep a certain distance between the members and walk at a constant speed based on the person with weak walking ability. The experienced person should take the lead and control the walking speed.
– Hiking time: It varies depending on the course, usually around 12 kilometers a day, around 4 a.m. and 2 p.m.
– Rock climbing: Hold the rock firmly with both hands, as if pushing the rock with the sole of your foot. Move your feet safely and then move your hands.
– Snow climbing: The valley walks slowly with small steps. The steep slope rises as it digs concave into the tip of the shoe.
