Fourthly, apathy and fatigue contribute to carelessness — you must constantly think about how to keep yourself warm! Advice from well-established manufacturers should be sought early in planning, as much of the gear has to be specially made and fitted. Plastic double boots, being extremely light, are the norm at altitude - their one problem is moisture generated by sweating: spare inners and socks, and homemade closed cell foam insoles are worth thinking about.
Pee bottles with a funnel for women are vital a half litre size is usually adequate, but not always. Defecation is difficult, but various suits with appropriate zips are available: thought should be given to the design of underclothes to make sure they can be used with this system.
Frostbite is usually a product of several factors and it is frequently avoidable. The occurrence of frostbite almost always means the end of any serious climbing for the victim on the current expedition and much extra work for colleagues. Drugs are of little use. Cooking is a boring and time-consuming chore: reliable stoves are vital and although Primus, MSR or other liquid fuel stoves work well at extreme altitude they require care in operation and are fiddly to maintain.
Butane-propane mix stoves are quick, easy to use and safer, but problems with fuel availability are sometimes encountered. The steep, unforgiving peaks of the Himalaya have wowed and challenged mountaineers for decades. Unfortunately, no one has yet designed a palatable high altitude diet: dehydrated food is usually rejected after a few days, and despite its weight some people favour the foil packed ready cooked meals which require heating only.
Vegetarian foods - porridge, pasta, cooked rice, dahl or beans are popular in contrast to high-calorie fatty meats such as smoked ham, salamis and the tinned meats that are popular at lower altitudes. There is such wide variation between individuals that no firm rules can be made. In any case provide ample quantities of fuel for snow melts and ample sugar: an ideal fluid intake of 3 litres or more per man per day should be aimed at.
The only real nutrition issues are fluids and calories. Modern tents have revolutionised high altitude camping. Specially designed box tents have also added to the repertoire of those trying to solve the high altitude accommodation problem, but they are heavy. Snow holes and igloos provide shelter from wind, noise and snow and are often preferable.
No drugs have shown to be of use in preventing the deterioration that occurs at extreme altitudes. Diamox acetazolamide , which is useful in the prevention of AMS at m, has not been shown to alter performance above metres. Despite some popular opinion, vitamin E, garlic, marijuana or alcohol are not known to help or hinder. Amphetamines and other stimulants are strongly discouraged, as are sleeping pills such as Temazepam. The possible long-term effects of climbing at extremely high altitude have attracted much publicity.
Whilst severe lack of oxygen undoubtedly causes damage to the nerve cells in the brain, there is no clinical evidence of "brain damage" or intellectual impairment in the many climbers who have spent time over metres.
The main danger in climbing the highest peaks in the world lies in death by accident or unrecognised illness — usually a combination of the snow conditions, cold and the effects of lack of oxygen. There is no way to completely prevent the ill effects of extreme altitudes. The rules are: - a To be well acclimatised to around m. Climbing at Extreme Altitude. Home High altitude climbing. Tips for High Altitude Climbing Climbing to the world's tallest places present both extreme physical and mental challenges.
The Physiological Problem of High-Altitude Expeditions The amount of oxygen in air decreases linearly with ascent and very approximately there is about half of sea level oxygen present at m. Mountain Logistics, Altitude and Acclimatisation Going above metres is a unique experience. Climb High, Sleep Low When climbing it is good to adopt the adage of climbing high and sleeping low whenever possible.
Force Yourself to Eat and Sleep The ability to sleep after hard work is an indication of the body properly adjusting to the altitude.
