Generally speaking, cloudy days and cloudy days are more suitable for hiking. Be sure to watch the weather forecast before going out.

Pay attention to walking in thunderstorms and rainy days in different weather, and wear rain boots if possible, otherwise the shoes will be polluted by a lot of mud and water. If you don't have rain boots, you can make a simple shoe cover with plastic bags.

2. In case of thunderstorm, be sure to stay away from dangerous buildings such as telephone poles.

3. When hiking in rainy days at night, avoid stepping into the puddle by observing the light emitted by the puddle.

4. Short leggings can prevent rain from slipping from trouser legs to hiking shoes. The backpack should be covered with a waterproof cover. If you walk in the rain for a long time, the clothes and sleeping bags in your backpack should be wrapped in waterproof bags or plastic bags.

The weather is cold 1, and whether to take an umbrella when hiking in wet and cold areas depends on the local environment. When hiking for a long time in a relatively secluded forest, an umbrella is extremely important to keep your core body temperature normal.

2. Wearing too much clothes and exercising too much will lead to excessive sweating, which in turn will lead to a drop in body temperature. Pay attention to adjust at any time and appropriately increase or decrease clothes.

3. In the cold environment, the head, hands and feet are the most direct early warning systems. Therefore, the head, hands and feet must keep warm and cold.

The longer you rest, the colder you will feel. When the weather is bad, try to shorten the rest time. If you have to rest for a long time, it is recommended to wear two more clothes until you continue to set off.

5. When hiking during the day, eat high-energy food regularly. Dinner before bed should contain high fat and high protein, because these foods are digested slowly. In addition, you can put some chocolates in your sleeping bag to prevent hunger and cold in the middle of the night.

Windy days 1, windy days may be accompanied by sand blowing, and the inhaled gas will contain dust and bacteria. These conditions can lead to cough, digestive diseases or dyspnea, so wear a mask and cover your mouth and nose.

2. Stay away from billboards. Strong winds exceeding level 6 are likely to cause unsafe factors such as billboards falling down and trees breaking. Every year, there are reports of casualties caused by strong winds blowing down billboards.

On snowy days 1, whether hiking or climbing in the snow, you must do a good job of anti-skid, wear anti-skid hiking shoes (waterproof and breathable), fleece and waterproof anti-skid gloves, and add snow cover and crampons if necessary. Walk in small strides and walk with trekking poles to improve stability.

2. Be sure to do warm-up exercises before the activity. Ice and snow, bad road conditions, it is easy to fall. If we don't exercise our muscles and joints, we may have serious consequences after falling.

3. Do a good job of heat preservation in snowy days. When doing outdoor activities, pay attention to the warmth of the head and neck (more than 30% of the body's heat is lost through the head and neck), wear appropriate thermal underwear, underwear and fleece-catching clothes, and try to make clothes as bright as possible to facilitate contact and search and rescue in the snow.

4, grasp the travel time, snow consumption is very large, the team leader should appropriately increase the rest frequency, try not to walk at night, so as to avoid danger.

When the weather is hot, it is 1, and keeping enough drinking water is the best way to prevent problems related to high temperature on foot in summer. The human body's absorption of liquid is limited, and it is best to add about one liter of water per hour in summer. Although this may not replace the water lost when sweating, it is enough.

2. When hiking in summer, clothes should be loose, light in color and breathable. High-tech synthetic materials are more suitable than cotton fabrics, because the latter will become hotter and heavier when people sweat.

3. The head is suitable for a certain width of anti-ultraviolet hat. Please remember that a large part of human sweat is discharged through the head, and a thick airtight hat will overheat people's body temperature.

How to identify weather sounds and smells When air humidity increases, sounds will travel farther and smells will be easier to identify. Saturated wet air, like an amplifier, is a good conductor. For example, you can't hear the sound of the train running in some places, but you can clearly hear the sound of the train before it rains one day.

Physical changes, such as bad weather, will make curly hair feel tight. If it becomes easy to wind or not as straight and easy to comb as usual, it is probably a storm. When the air humidity increases, anyone suffering from rheumatoid arthritis, corns or related symptoms will feel pain and discomfort.

Observe the bonfire. If the fireworks rise steadily, it means that the weather will not change much, but it will still be fine. If the fireworks flash or fluctuate, there may be a storm.
