What is Snow Mountain Trekking?

After tinged autumn leaves fall, and snow comes down, the mountain is revived. Exciting snowfields and beautiful branches with snow can be seen during mountain activities during winter. Climbers regard this time the time of the year and feel fluttered and excited. Winter mountains are fascinating and the open range of vision seems to even wash away old dirt. Many climbers are charmed by winter mountains. The romantic and thrilling adventure is different and many call it a special relation that they develop with the mountain.

Trees and rocks are nicely covered by white snow; it is quite special to walk through snow that reaches up to the knee and provides a different experience. However, winter mountains do not only mean joy and romance. The 4 seasons are very distinct in Korea. In winter, Korea is next to the Siberian cold; and this means that it is the most difficult and dangerous time for climbing. Especially winter in the mountains can be compared with the cold of the North or South Pole - severe and changeable. Therefore equipment can be compared with the one necessary to climb the Himalaya. It is very important to make all kinds of preparation thoroughly.
