Recommendations for the selection of winter equipment for Carpathians
A tent. Most of the winter trips in Carpathians involve nights in the cradles. So we don't take tents at all to ease the general weight. If the tent is taken, the following considerations should be taken into account. When a sports trip is planned, which can be nights on ridges, the best high tents with aluminium aluminium arc, reinforced design, more durable tent materials are required. In the case of a walk where the nights will be near the cradle, in the woods, there's a normal all-sezzle with plastic or aluminium arcs.
Ryukzak. For a man, the recommended backpack is at least 75 l, for a woman at least 60 l.
Fonariki (bachils, gamashi)♪ We'll take it with us. They're designed to protect shoes against snow and dirt inside.
A rug. In order to be able to sleep warmly, it is recommended that a new Jeevese rug (or another producer, the bulk) be purchased for winter. Old worn carpets better leave for the summer.
