Loosing weight for alpine routes
There are several of ways to do this…
- Train right
- Watch what you eat
- Take only the gear your really need on a route
- Take the lightest gear you can afford

Colin Haley’s article on equipment for alpine climbing is well worth a read however. Colin really knows what he’s talking about. Check it out.
