Collection of witty words that I have accumulated during my climbing era, then and now. Reposted from my Multiply blog. Caveat: word definitions here are my pure opinion and does not in any way claim authority over the word or the matter. Pardon the horrible grammar, I didn't edit it to preserve spontaneity of my previous posts.
DAYHIKE AND DAYTREK
Dayhike vs. Overnight Climb
Dayhike means akyat at baba ka ng bundok without setting camp. Kahit abutin ka pa rin ng gabi, or madaling araw basta akyat at baba ka ng bundok without sleeping in the mountain (pitch tent), dayhike pa rin yun. In contrast with Overnight Climb, eto yung nagseset ng camp at nagpapahinga ng matagal bago bumaba. Pero kung nagset ka ng camp, nagsocials tapos walang tulugan kasi naghintay ng sunrise.... ito ba ay dayhike?
Daytrek vs. Nighttrek
Daytrek is walking up or down a mountain with the aid of sunlight, or anytime na hindi pa nagdidilim. Kung ikaw ay aakyat ng gabi.... ito ay tinatawag na Nighttrek. Kung aakyat ka ng gabi na kasama mo si Sunshine.... daytrek o nighttrek?
