TANAPA POINTS TO REMEMBER ON MOUNTAINS CLIMBING
– To listen to the guides and others who are familiar with the conditions here, follow their advice.
– Leave the park undisturbed by no leaving, or removing anything, animate or inanimate.
– If you meet problems, turn back, and use the same route that you and your party had taken up.
– A pulmonary case ought IMMEDIATELY to be brought down to lower altitudes.
– Follow the official routes/trails only, when you are walking in the forest. It is easy to get lost. Never go alone if it can be helped.
