Mountaineering or alpinism is an extreme outdoor sport in Arcerion common amongst the population that involves ascending tall mountains or hiking through complex terrain. Mountaineering-related sport includes a wide range of activities, from ice climbing, alpine skiing, helicopter skiing, and traversing glaciers. It also encompasses a smaller range of more recreational activities such as bouldering, indoor rock climbing, sport climbing, and cross country skiing. | |||
Unlike traditional organized league sports in Arcerion, mountaineering and alpine sport lacks a codified set of rules or governing set of laws on proper application of technique. Mountaineers in Arcerion use a variety of techniques, philosophies, technologies, and commonly rely on lived experiences and academic study versus rigorous adherence to rules and set styles. Across Arcerion, predominantly in the South and North (near the respective Aileach and Northumbraeland Mountains) alpine and climbing clubs are organized for people to enjoy activities and learn about the sport. | |||
Mountaineering's close linkage to the natural environment and local ecology intrinsically links it to Arco Determinism, or the guiding cultural doctrine of the Arcer people, wherein ecological protectionism ranks high on mountaineering's list of fundamental principles. Whereas other popular hiking destinations and challenges are littered with trash and garbage, Arcer mountains are regularly cleaned and maintained, with steep fines for the incorrect disposal of waste. Commercially, mountaineering is an expensive sport due to the specific equipment, safety apparatus, and clothing required to successfully summit mountains. This has given rise to many popular clothing and requipment brands in Arcerion such as the Arcer Mountain Gear Company and the Ixnay-wide outdoor brand Northumbraeland. | |||
