Many people go for a walk in the mountains – and are overwhelmed by the beautiful mountains, but do not know exactly – which mountains. Again, many people hope to go to Keokradong and take pictures of Dumlong mountain, but when they go to the place, they can’t recognize which one is Dumlong. Today we will talk about some simple techniques of mountain climbing.

1. Initially, the easiest tool or tool for mountain identification is Google Earth (Google Maps will also work). The mountain you go to (think Keokradong) is marked on Google Earth. Then mark all the pictures of the mountains that you want next to them on Google Earth. You will find the names of all the famous mountains – Location e Google Earth in the marked conditions. You can mark it as your own. The task then is to draw a line in Google Earth – which will show the proprietor how many degrees the line is in. This degree is the real formula.

Now one thing to keep in mind is that the angle drawn in Google Earth – its angular position is expressed in ‘azimuth’. This azimuth is a way to express an angular position with a number. Holding the north side to zero is a measure of 360 degrees per clockwise. For example, straight north azimuth 0 degrees, straight east 90 degrees, straight south 180 degrees, just northeast means 45 degrees. Now if it is said that the azimuth of a mountain is 280 degrees, then what do you understand? Understandably it is just to the west. Again, if it is said that the azimuth of Kaon mountain is 200 degrees from Keokradong, then what is meant? Since 180 degrees means south, 200 degrees means south and 20 degrees to the right.

2. The second method is that you recognize a mountain, but do not recognize a mountain next to it. To know that, you can measure the angular distance by standing in place. There is a picture in the album to measure the angular distance with the fingers of the hand. You know Dumlong and think the three-faced pillar is 30 degrees away from Dumlong, on the right. Now by measuring 30 degrees with your hand you can find the hill of three face pillars. And how to get Kaunin distance? You get it by subtracting the azimuth of the two hills. That means the azimuth of one hill is 60 degrees, the other mountain is 75 degrees. Then the angular distance of these two hills is 25 degrees.

Some azimuth and distance from Keokradong:

Sakahafong: Azimuth 151 Degree, Distance (20+)
Jogi: Azimuth 162 Degree, Distance (32 km)
Jowtlong: Azimuth 164 Degree, Dstance (34 km)
Kopital: Azimuth 169 Degree, Distance 5.4 km
Tazingdong: Azimuth 173 Degree, Distance 15 km
Cirstong: Azimuth 187 Degree, Dstance 32 km
Rungrang: Azimuth 193 DEgree, Distance 32 –
Dim Pahar: Azimuth 205 Degree, Distance 24 km.
Chokki nala: 223 DEg, 21 km

Keep your environment clean, especially if you go to the mountains where there is no litter, do not disturb the wildlife.
