The mountains, especially in winter, require suitable physical fitness, appropriate equipment, a knowledge of the dangers that you face and the ability to distinguish between them as ability to make the courageous decision to abandon your plans under certain weather conditions.
Use extra caution ALWAYS. Check the weather forecast and AINEVA avalanche warnings before embarking on any trip.
