“I lacked caution in the sun”: our hiking advice
The point of view of Blanche de Richemont, traveler writer
Dear Nelly, each hike is a small adventure, because it is always a step in the unknown. Even if we have already practiced the ground, we ignore the vagaries of the climate. Everything is possible with nature, the best as the worst. The weather is struggling to provide precisely the coming hours.
This part of mystery pushes us to always be ready for anything. When you go for a walk, feel able to face the sun or the rain. Always take a hat, sunscreen, a waterproof jacket, a sweater, a gourd and dried fruits.
Each season has its advantages and disadvantages. Summer, heat; Fall and spring, unstable times. I therefore advise you to go in all seasons, being well equipped. It is by lacking in prudence that we learn prudence.
Your fear of having an insolation had to worry you. In this case, wet your head a little. But above all, try not to add concern to the situation. Even when the sun hits and you feel more fragile, amaze! This will give you the strength to continue lightly to an oasis of shadow.
