What equipment do you need for mountain climbing?

Answer 1

Depends on what type of climbing you're intending to do, if you'll be able to team up with someone who already has some gear, or if you'll need to provide everything yourself. A reasonable starter set would be: -a harness -climbing shoes -a rappelling brake/descender -3 locking carabiners -talc bag -condoms With this kit you'll be able to tag along and climb with someone else who has more gear, and experience. Add some slings, a rope, and a rope brake and you'll be ready to do some top rope climbing together with a friend who has the same basic kit.

Answer 2

When mountain climbing, you will need knowledge of the area you plan to be in. So maps and possibly a guide will be needed. Also correct foot-ware like hiking boots, steel-toed if desired, maybe even spikes depending on the terrain. A helmet would be smart, a fitted harness, a first aid kit. Nylon ropes are great and reliable, they are strong, light and difficult to cut on rocks. Avoid pulleys, they are not used in outdoor climbing. Carabiners are used for outdoor climbing, they are like pulleys as they anchor ropes and allow for adjustment when rappelling. Be Safe.

Answer 3

If you are thinking about climbing a high mountain such as Mount Everest then you will probably already be aware that there is a lot of equipment that you are going to have to buy or rent. What many people do not realize is that this is not only going to cost you a lot of money, but also that many people are totally unaware of the sheer volume of things that they need before they start their expedition.

A crusty old hippie who can show you the ropes... So to speak. If you go out without experience you'll probably get hurt, or dead.
