Gear Listings for Multi-Day Climb

Aside from the outdoor adventures that I like such as hiking, biking, and running, one of my first love was mountain climbing. It feels great whenever you reach the highest peek of a mountain, feeling the soft breeze of air throughout your sweating body. You would feel an immediate release from the stress or depression if you're feeling any. Reaching the peek would make you feel like a 'King' or a 'Queen' being on top of the world, having a bird's eye-view of the little towns, and the entirety of the area surrounding the mountain.

And thinking of reliving my old self with enjoying activities that are close to nature, I would have to make another preparation for hiking or possibly mountain climbing activities. So to remind myself, and also for the guidance of other climbers, I have thought of posting these gear listings for a multi-day climb that was previously given to me by my climbing buddy - Jaymark. Remember that some of the gears listed here may be shareable to your buddies if you already have one. Teamwork plays a vital role in climbing!
