What are top bags?
The top bags are climbers who are trying to climb the full "set" of peaks, such as the highest peak on every continent, each fourteen in America or other similar target. Difficult lists of top bags, such as seven peaks, are usually considered a life goal: few top bags in the world have successfully climbed to Mount Everest, Aconcagua, Mount McKinley, Kilimanjaro, Elbrus, Vinson Massif and Puncak Jay. Peak Baggers use lists to arrange the mountains that have climbed and compare notes with other climbers. A list of top bags can be an excellent way to set a climbing goal for the season or a lifetime. The most common list is the High Point list, which includes the highest measured summity. In addition to seven summit lists, High Point lists could include the ten highest mountains on the continent or in a particular nation or state. Some climb on High Point lists can be extremely technically demanding, requiring skills and supporting staff while others may bet prováděni méně zkušení horolezci.
Jiné seznamy špičkových pytlů mohou měřit hory podle výšky prahu, izolaci od jiných vrcholů nebo význam. Seznamy prahu výšky jsou seznamy píků, které splňují určité požadavky na výšku, jako jsou čtrnácté a 8 000 metrů. Many climbers try to successfully culminate all peaks above a certain threshold as a challenge and some regions of the world, such as Colorado, have a high concentration of high mountains to climb, making them popular places for the top bags to travel. Izolace je definována jako vzdálenost od jiného vrcholu stejné nebo vyšší výšky. Mount Everest, nejvyšší hora na světě, má nekonečnou izolační hodnotu. V oblastech seskupených hor by izolace mohla být vypočtena jako jen několik set stop.
Prominence, také vidět liJako vertikální vzestup nebo kapku ramen je důležitým faktorem v seznamech špičkových pytlů. VýznAM is probably best explained by an example. Imagine that you just dropped the mountain. You start to climb back down and find yourself again for some time. You entered a gap or saddle, depression between two high points. When you get to the top of your climb, the distance from the base of the saddle to the top where you stand is excellent. Mountains with high meaning are independent of other peaks and soils.
Peak Baggers are sometimes criticized by other climbers, because some of them risk to achieve their goals, such as climbing during bad weather or without partners. Many top bags are trying to travel in groups or clubs to support climbing, not only to face criticism, but because it is safer and more fun. In 2006, several climbing stories were abandoned to die on the slopes on Hořeverest, questions about climbing ethics, especially the dangerous high heights. Some older climbers suggested that the top fad was responsible for the rostoucí počet nezkušených horolezců, kteří se při lezení dostali do vážných potíží.
Stejně jako jakýkoli venkovní sport může být horolezectví pro lidi na všech úrovních zkušeností nebezpečné. Unfortunately, some of the top bags lose consideration of what is important when climbing, and sometimes it costs life. Others, however, are ethical, responsible and experienced and wise action of several top bags should not disrupt our opinion on their rest.
