Summer has started and as soon as summer arrives, people start planning trips to the mountains. The beauty of the mountains attracts everyone, but the journey here is quite different from the plains. The altitude, narrow roads and changing weather are the reasons people come here from far and wide, but the peace of the mountains becomes your biggest responsibility.
If you are also planning to visit the hilly areas, then first of all know how you should carry your bag there, because in the hilly areas, the biggest mistake people make is carrying the wrong bag, because a wrong bag can make your entire trip a headache for you.
What is the correct way to carry a backpack in the mountains?
When people of Delhi and UP-Bihar plan to go to the mountains, they pack big bags, which is their biggest mistake. Let us know how it is right to carry a bag in hilly areas.
The hill people say that when they go to their village Almora, they never make the mistake of carrying trolley bags, because it is very difficult to carry them in the rocky and narrow roads of their village. That’s why trolley bags are rarely seen in their homes, because they carry their belongings to the village only in strong cloth bags or backpacks.
The most special thing about them is that you can carry them easily, after which you do not face any problem in walking while climbing the hilly roads. In areas where there is climbing, it is better to carry such a bag. Even today, local hill people consider a strong cloth bag as the best one for going to the village.
He says that in his village, he has to walk down for 2 to 3 hours and in such a situation, where the road is narrow, sometimes even if his bag falls from his hand, there is no problem, because the bag does not tear or break if it falls from one field to another.
Why do trolley bags become a cause of trouble?
Often people set out with trolley bags in the name of convenience, but in the mountains this decision can prove costly. It becomes very difficult to pull a trolley bag on stone paths, stairs and muddy tracks. Many times you have to carry it and walk, due to which the journey becomes tiring and it is also very difficult to carry it.
Whereas backpack or rucksack is considered to be the best option for hilly roads. You can easily hang them on your back, so that both your hands remain free. This makes it easier to maintain balance while trekking or climbing and you feel more safe.
Keep these things in mind
- If you are going on a 2-3 day trip, then a bag with 40 to 60 liter capacity is ideal. Clothes, shoes, medicines and other essential items easily fit in it.
- Along with this, the bag must have facilities like multiple compartments, waterproof material and rain cover, because the weather can change suddenly in the mountains.
- It is not enough to just have a bag, it is equally important for it to be comfortable. The backpack should have padded shoulder straps, strong back support and a waist and chest belt. All these features distribute the weight evenly and reduce the fatigue of carrying the bag for long periods of time.
- The right bag is very important for both your convenience and safety during a mountain trip. So next time whenever you go to a hill station or trekking, carry your belongings in a strong backpack instead of a trolley bag.
