Tips when climbing at high altitude

John Brennan shares with us some tips on preparing for an high altitude trip. It’s not a new post but I’ve just discovered it and I think it can be useful.

4.      Drink plenty of water. In the week before you heading to altitude make a point of topping up your system by drinking plenty of water. The air travel, warm weather, altitude and exercise all dehydrate your body. In the evening have a bottle of water in your hand that you can be sipping from.

I suggest you to drink a lot of water in your hike, even if you are not thirsty.
