The 15 rules:

  1. Research the environmental regulations of the place you intend to visit.

  2. Check the weather forecast.

  3. Always inform trusted individuals about where you are going and when you plan to return.

  4. Always be accompanied by someone with a first-aid kit who knows how to assist in case of need.

  5. Hire a specialized guide for natural attractions whenever visiting a new location.

  6. Make sure that the place where you plan to perform maneuvers is safe and can support your weight.

  7. Never do anything out of fear.

  8. Consider all possible mistakes before starting a maneuver.

  9. In dangerous situations, only attempt what you master 100%. This means you can execute it flawlessly at least 10 consecutive times in a safe environment similar to where you intend to perform the maneuver.

  11. Only maneuver with a rope if you have knowledge of vertical techniques.

  13. Always take your trash back with you.

  14. Never take anything from nature.

  15. Never feed the animals.
