Note 10 — SKI MOUNTAINEERING. By W. R. Rickmers.

This, perhaps, scarcely goes far enough. The outfit suitable for undulating wooded ground on which a runner may attain to great skill is not equally serviceable high up. In particular, a cap covering most of the face and neck, smoked glasses or the simple arrangement described on p. 50, a light wind-jacket of some sort, extra-thick gloves, extra-thick socks, and extra-stout nailed boots are essential. The runner should accustom himself to carrying a large heavy rucksack, which is a disagreeable, but, alas! an indispensable, companion on a long mountain tour.—Ed.
