climbing vs. hiking
Posted: Thu Aug 27, 2009 6:47 pm
I'm looking for some ideas, about hiking, vs climbing. If your going up a mountain, when does a hike become a climb? Are all mountains climbed? or are you only climbing when, you are using your hands, and feet (scrambling)? Or is it climbing only when your using a rope ( class 4, or 5), What about glacier travel?
I would say if a person is scrambling, they are climbing . Just looking for some ideas, what people out there think?
