Stay Warm in Winter Mountain Hikes

Since the first snow this season in the 3,000-meter-high mountainous areas of Sheipa National Park in late November, the nighttime temperature there has dropped below 0°C, and some regions have become frozen and icy. The public are advised to keep warm for their winter hikes in high-altitude mountains and to prepare the necessary hiking and climbing equipment to tackle weather changes in the mountains.

Climbing groups are advised to carefully select experienced coaches and group leaders. Group members are also advised to have climbing experience and related training and to bring sufficient equipment. Frozen trails are dangerous and slippery and can easily cause fall-related injuries. Travelers are strongly advised to pay extra attention to their personal safety when travelling around steep slopes, cliffs, or narrow areas (such as the base of Mt. Dabajian).
