Did the doctor Michel Paccard and his guide Jacques Balma in 1786. Later they erected a monument, which is located in the world capital of mountaineering-Chamonix Mont Blanc. Continue to answer the question, what climbing. Now take a closer look at technology and some of its varieties.

Technique

As we already know, the essence of climbing is to overcome various natural obstacles in the mountains, and it's not just rock. Those can be very rapid and deep rivers, glaciers, snow and so on. All this inevitably entails great danger for athletes, and for safety you should always adhere to the developed technique on the basis of experience of the climbers of past generations. So first and foremost mountaineering – strict adherence to the safety instructions. Now consider the features of overcoming of various obstacles.

The Cliffs

The Technique of overcoming such obstacles strongly depends on their steepness. Usually overcome them in conjunction with other climbers. The meaning is that as climbing on the rocks partners in conjunction insure each other. Because mountaineering is a sport characterized by high risk, in addition to insurance, in the rise on the vertical or just steep mountain is the so-called rule of three points: three of the four limbs of man must have a fulcrum. In this case, when the emergency situation or the loss of one of the pillars of the athlete to maintain balance much easier.

If the cliffs are not very steep, allowed the simultaneous rise of all participants in the ligament. In this case, the one who goes first, selects a route so that when you drop one of the other climbers was able to restrain him by laying ropes over ledges.

what is mountain climbing definition of

When steep cliffs or very steep, used a system of insurance of metal stakes that are hammered into the crevices with a hammer. If the area is sharp rocks that can cut rope in case of fall of the climber, use a double, spare ropes.

If you need to climb a steep cliff where there are ledges, then used a special rope ladder.

We discussed what climbing, the definition of the word and one of the ways that is used for lifting. Now consider the rest.

Ice

In the mountains, especially tall parts, often the glaciers and ice falls that climbers have to overcome. For this purpose, crampons, ice axes, rope ladders and railings and so on.

With the passage of the glacier there is always the danger of falling into a crevasse, because moving them only in bunches, constantly protecting each other. If the ice is very steep, then use "cat" with ice axes, organizing the intermediate points of insurance athletes.

Snow

With the snow simpler. Depending on its condition used snowshoes or skis. Insurance also do not forget, there is always a risk of falling into a snow crevasse.

Style

At the moment there are two main styles of climbing: Alpine and Himalayan. The first is suitable for not very high mountains, it is characterized by the fact that the rise is carried out immediately with all the equipment and does not imply a return without good reason.

And Himalayan used more often to conquer very high mountains, the so-called eight-thousanders. The idea is that we gradually laid the route, points, insurance, settling in camps with a stock of fuel, oxygen, food. Most of all it looks like a "siege" of the mountains, and takes sometimes one month, but it is through similar ways and were conquered the highest mountains.
