For this reason, today we want to share with you some recommendations, which you should take into account when going mountaineering.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>How can altitude affect you?<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The air in the atmosphere is made up of 20.9% oxygen. This percentage is kept constant and only changes when it leaves the troposphere (the layer that covers the Earth&#8217;s atmosphere). However, when a person is climbing, as the altitude increases, the atmospheric pressure decreases. Due to this phenomenon, the human body experiences a decrease in the partial pressure of oxygen in the inspired air and can suffer from <\/span><b>acute mountain sickness, better known as altitude sickness.<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In a nutshell, this phenomenon is understood as the physical discomfort experienced when a person has difficulty adapting to low oxygen pressure due to high altitude.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Although everyone may have different reactions, the most common <\/span><b>symptoms of altitude sickness <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">are:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Headaches:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> this is the most frequent symptom of acute mountain sickness. It is usually felt in different areas of the head and can become more acute depending on atmospheric conditions.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Drowsiness and periods of apnea: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">it is common for people to suffer from sleep disturbances, due to the hyperventilation generated in response to altitude sickness.<\/span><\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\"><b>Nausea and vomiting.<\/b><\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\"><b>Excessive exhaustion.<\/b><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Although most of the time the symptoms are mild, they can also cause discomfort, interfere with activity due to discomfort, or be disabling. Likewise, they are generally progressive, appear between 2 and 12 hours after arrival at a new altitude and may increase after the first.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>What can be done to prevent altitude sickness?<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As a first step, it is recommended that there is a good preparation before shipping. Good physical condition, health care and acclimatization are essential aspects to prevent this condition. It is also recommended to maintain a varied and balanced diet, to follow the recommendations for adequate hydration, to avoid the consumption of alcoholic or psychoactive substances and at least 8 hours of sleep the day before the planned activity.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">On the other hand, it is recommended that in case of health problem, the mountaineer goes to a professional and advises his guides, companions or group on his conditions, his background, the medications he takes and be very careful. by following the instructions. which will allow a successful ascent.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Read also: <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/tolhuinexpeditions.com\/list-of-equipment-you-need-for-our-unlimited-summit-experiences\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><b>List of equipment you need for our &lt;&lt;Unlimited Expeditions &amp; Summit&gt;&gt;<\/b><\/a><\/p>\n<h2><b>How to prepare for hiking at altitude?<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The highest mountain in Chilean Patagonia, Mount San Valent\u00edn or San Clemente is the highest peak of the Northern Ice Field in Laguna San Rafael National Park and Biosphere Reserve.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The so-called White Roof of Patagonia was discovered only in 1920 from the top the view shows unforgettable landscapes of the lagoon and the San Rafael glacier with its 4,058 meters above sea level.
