Updates from Jesmond!

The guys from Corezone gave us some tips:

Shoes/Boots:
Hard soles (tapak), water proof

Gloves:
Avoid using bulky snow gloves (comfy but not suitable for via ferrata).
Use warm and fitting gloves (kayak)

Jacket:
Water proof. Get a fleece too if possible. Do not underestimate the cold.

Water:
There is a water station at every 1km. Do not picture a water stall like your luxurious marathon runs. It's a natural water catchment, mini tangki thingy. Buy water purification tablets, do not challenge ur stomach during the climb.
