Good trekking equipment is essential!

I was reading more about technological developments in the adventure tourism book that I borrowed.

It was saying that technological developments has made a huge impact on the practical matters in adventure, such as how comfortable with feel in adverse weather. Comfort is about clothing and equipment. Clothing helps us feel more comfortable, keeping us warm when needed, and equipment does more than that. For example, trekking poles aid balance and movement in less friendly terrains, and climbing shoes with sticky soles aid movement of rock.

I’ve seen those climbing shoes with sticky soles – the sole is like those hooks you use on your walls. So interesting! From personal experience, the pair of footwear you wear does make a huge difference in trekking, especially in the aspect of safety! Therefore, do invest in good equipment if you are serious about adventure!
