1、 backpack selection:
if you have the ability, according to the content of mountaineering activities, the nature of the use of the appropriate capacity of the duffel bag, such as 2-3 days of activities plus camping, then the capacity of the backpack is about 45-65L, if it is a 4-7 days of activities on the need for 65-80L, but of course also depending on the items carried by the different adjustments to the purpose of avoiding the use of the inappropriate backpack capacity caused by:
(1) big bag for small use: backpack items are too little, walking easy to shake the light affect the mood of walking. Heavy over the difficult route easy to lose balance, resulting in danger.
(2) Small rucksacks are of great use: a rucksack that is too small will cause problems for the whole team in terms of uneven sharing of rations in addition to causing trouble for yourself. Furthermore, a rucksack that is too small will make it necessary to hang extra items outside of the rucksack, which is very dangerous, and there is often a danger of falling because of a twig or a piece of protruding stone when you are going over the cliffs and crags. In addition, passing through bushes and arrow bamboo forests can block your way.
2、Weight distribution.
Refer to the trip records, if the day trip is good to walk more mountain trails, such as wide prongs of the grassy slopes, according to the contour of the forest road, at this time the centre of gravity of the backpack can be elevated inward leaning, so that the centre of gravity falls on the hips, the weight of heavy objects, small objects upwards near the back to be placed so that the feeling will be more relaxed, but the disadvantage is that due to the centre of gravity of high stability is poorer when walking; on the other hand! If the day need to cross the cliff, climbing rocks, walking thin prongs …… on the centre of gravity down, but still as close to the back as possible, so as not to pull the centre of gravity outward, resulting in the negative shoulders regardless of which of the above methods: waterproofing of the sleeping bag to deal with put the bottom of the principle of invariable: one to put the phase. Under the backpack can have a cushion; Secondly, the sleeping bag is not to get camp camping will come out of the items, just give it to the bottom of the pressure it!
3、Waterproof treatment.
Regardless of how waterproof backpack, generally on the mountain when packing the vast majority of people will first add a layer of plastic bags.
4、packing experience to share.
(1) finished sleeping bags, sleeping pads, spare clothes, feather clothes or feather vest first step, may be wondering sleeping pads so big to put outside more will not take up space, in fact, this is the money to spend it down the benefits of the choice of lightweight equipment, in exchange for the limited use of space.
(2) Don’t lean on hard objects close to your back, or you will easily hit your back and it will be very uncomfortable.
(3) Empty pots and pans can be placed inside the food, stove, gas cans and other small things, or put the eggs into the empty pots and pans wrapped in newspaper, generally speaking, do not lose the egg folder is also space-saving, and then think of other uses it!) Make good use of the small bundle bag, when you have time to visit the mountaineering supplies shop or other shops can look for, not too large, the opening has a drawstring, mesh is the best.
