Prior to the Journey
?Note the weather conditions, Pay special attention to potential climatic hazards during the following periods. ?A sudden drop in temperature may cause hypothermia; ?Gusty wind with low humidity may increase the risk of hill fire.

1.Nature of the journey, the route and the destination; 2.Date and time of the event, as well as the estimated finishing time; 3.Number of participants and their age.
Hikers tend to fall off over slippery paths easily in such a case the best prevention that one should use are anklet boots, walking over wet rock surfaces, muddy paths and sandy badlands can also be taken in to consideration
