Before entering the plateau, you can consult with people who have experience of living in the plateau for precautions, so as to know them well and avoid unnecessary tension.
Before entering the plateau, smoking and drinking are prohibited to prevent upper respiratory tract infection. Avoid overwork, and have a good rest. Take American ginseng properly to enhance the anti hypoxia ability of the body. If there is respiratory tract infection, it should be cured before entering the plateau.
Good psychological quality is a panacea for overcoming altitude reactions. A large number of cases have proved that maintaining an open-minded and optimistic mood and building strong self-confidence can reduce the physical discomfort of the plateau reaction zone. On the contrary, if you are worried, over thinking, and feel a little uncomfortable, you will feel anxious at high altitude. On the contrary, it will increase the oxygen consumption of brain tissue, which will aggravate the physical discomfort and prolong the self-healing time.
If you have never been to the plateau, you must have a strict physical examination before entering the plateau. Patients with severe anemia or hypertension should not enter the plateau blindly.
The fewer backpacks, the better
On the premise of sufficient use, the less luggage and backpacks you can carry when traveling in Tibet, the better. Generally, a backpack of less than 45 liters is enough. If you participate in some outdoor hiking and camping activities, one big backpack and one small backpack are enough.
The warmer the clothes, the better
Because the temperature in Tibet is very low and the temperature difference between day and night is very large, down jackets and warm woolen clothes are indispensable.
If you go hiking or mountaineering in Tibet, you should prepare a set of sweat wicking underwear. In the wild, it is troublesome to stick sweat on your body, and it will quickly take away the heat, which is very dangerous. In addition, special attention should be paid to the fact that it rains almost every day in July and August in Tibet, which requires that all equipment should be waterproof.
The more refined the sleeping bag, the better
From July to August, a 1kg duck down sleeping bag is warm enough. If you want to buy more than 80% velvet, the compressed volume is not much larger than that of a large bottle of Coke.
Preferred hiking shoes
Of course, you need a pair of good shoes to travel. Especially in Tibet, the best choice is hard soled and high top hiking shoes, which are not easy to enter the sand and gravel, and not easy to fall off when passing through the muddy ground. They are also good for water insulation and warmth preservation. It is also recommended to bring a pair of slippers for use in the bathroom.
Must have sunglasses
Strong ultraviolet rays and snow and ice reflections are easy to damage the eyes, so a pair of good sunglasses is very necessary.
Sun cream must be used to avoid peeling
The air on the plateau is thin and the sun shines directly. Sunscreen can prevent skin peeling.
Travel Water Bottle Source of Life
The water in Tibet is pure, and some can be drunk directly. There is often no one to smoke for tens of kilometers on the plateau, and there is often no next meal, so it is useful to take a kettle with you.
