Depending on the desires and interests of each person.
Here is an example:
Basic rules of direction: to locate in the desert or mountains, using
basic tools (compass, altimeter, GPS, maps).
The weather in the mountain environment: climatic characteristics of
the mountain environment, how can we predict the weather in the mountains?
Safety rules specific to the mountain environment: knowledge of the
environment, coping with the storm ...
The dietary hike: how to feed path, the problem of weight-calorie,
hygiene rules.
Geographical Approach mountain and desert environments (fauna, flora,
climate).
LEVEL OF PHYSICAL CIRCUITS:
EASY: Circuit accessible to any person in good physical condition to
practice on an occasional sporting activity known as a substantive (cycling,
running, swimming).
MEDIUM: Circuit accessible to any person in good physical condition to
practice on a regular basis a sporting activity known as background (cycling,
running, swimming) and has a little experience hiking in the mountains.
LEADS: Circuit accessible to people in good physical condition who
practice a very regular sporting activity known as a substantive (cycling,

Preparation
business ... Qu'emporter?
1 - WELL TO CHOOSE HIS SHOE:
The EXAMPLE NOT TO DO:
Shoe called "trek" having served less than 10 sorties and yet ...
... sole literally exploded forcing a do-it-yourself fortune with tape
(traces white) to allow his hapless owner
finished somehow his trek.
2 - THE BACKPACK:
For all circuits proposed, it is useful to have two bags: one bag left in
the minibus or entrusted to a hotel and a backpack for hiking.
PUT THAT IN HIS BACKPACK?
Use a comfortable backpack big enough to contain all matters required for
hiking. Think about a system of fixed (or straps under flap) for snowshoe tours
during winter, when portering.
In addition to the backpack, a bag (outlaw bags rigid) will be very useful for
storing your business in the minibus, a hotel or as porters by mules (circuit Morocco). Use
plastic bags to store your business in the bag to protect from moisture is
proving to be a good trick because there are no backpacks waterproof.
It should be noted that the weight is the enemy of hikers: Eliminate the
unnecessary in your bag!
3 - THE CLOTHES:
In all cases, avoid cotton clothing, which despite their comfort, dry very
slowly. It is not too uncomfortable in fine weather in summer, but by cool and
wet quickly during breaks and business are not dry the next day.
This is also valid for socks which, in addition to not dry, causing sympathetic
light bulbs ... So trust the synthetic fibres!
