Hiking steep descents before I started hiking, I thought that going up hill with a heavy pack would be the hardest thing to do. Until I realized that hiking down a steep descent was far worse.

Hi and welcome back to Hike and Seeker channel.
In today's episode, I want to share with you tips for safe hiking when faced with a steep descent.
Hiking steep descents, is easier when you don't have a heavy pack on.
Having a heavy pack on your back, makes the descent far more precarious.
While your trekking poles do act as a brake. Attention should be taken, in not putting all your pack weight and your own weight onto the poles. If you do and you slip, or the poles slip, then your in all sorts of trouble. Serious injury can easily happen.
If there is an easier way down, then take it. Even if it takes you a bit longer to get to the bottom.
Some clear descents can be traversed using a zig zag pathway going downwards
Stay safe out there, on those steep descents, I hope to see you on the next episode!
