PNOA Member Safety Code

I. Fundamental Principle — Prioritize Preparation

• Maintain the physical fitness and agility required to safely handle unpredictable outdoor environments.
• Acquire essential safety skills: First Aid, AST (Avalanche Skills Training), offline GPS navigation, and route tracking.
• Pack the mandatory gear: two-way radios, headlamps, and microspikes/crampons are required to navigate changing field conditions.

II. Registration Principle — Know Your Limits & the Terrain

• Review trip difficulty levels thoroughly to ensure your stamina and outdoor experience match the route demands.
• Be honest about your physical condition; never overestimate your capabilities or attempt to push through an unsafe limit.
• Verify your schedule commitments beforehand to avoid scheduling conflicts that could disrupt team logistics.

III. Activity Principle — Follow Commands & Act as a Team

• Prepare all gear strictly according to the checklist. Leaders reserve the right to decline participation if mandatory equipment is missing—this is strictly for your own protection.
• Arrive at the designated meeting point on time out of respect for your teammates' schedule.
• Follow the leader’s decisions and structural arrangements to preserve overall group safety.
• Maintain proper team formation and group pacing; never split off alone or take unauthorized shortcuts.
• Maintain transparent communication:
  • Notify the leader immediately if you experience physical distress, feel overwhelmed by the terrain, or have safety anxieties. Speaking up protects the whole team.
• Respect your fellow hikers and offer mutual support, but avoid reckless behavior or playing the hero.
• Respect wildlife and strictly adhere to the 7 Principles of Leave No Trace (LNT).
• In exceptional or unforeseen circumstances, the leader holds full authority to adjust routes, alter itineraries, or terminate the hike. Safety dictates every decision.

一、基本原则 —— 不打无准备之仗

• 保持良好的体能与灵敏度，确保身体能应对严苛的户外环境。
• 掌握核心户外安全技能：急救（First Aid）、雪崩安全训练（AST）、离线导航及轨迹追踪。
• 备齐必备装备：对讲机、头灯、冰爪等缺一不可，全面应对复杂多变的荒野环境。

二、报名原则 —— 知己知彼

• 深入了解活动难度，务必确认个人体能与户外经验与路线完全匹配。
• 客观评估自身健康状况，量力而行，绝不盲目逞强。
• 确认时间安排，严防与其他日程冲突而影响团队整体行程。

三、活动原则 —— 一切行动听指挥

• 严格按清单检查装备；若核心装备不全，领队有权拒绝其参加——这既是对制度的尊重，更是为了保护你的安全。
• 准时到达集合地点，不迟到，尊重团队中每个人的时间。
• 无条件服从领队的现场安排，全力维护队伍的整体安全。
• 严守队形与行进节奏，严禁擅自离队或冒险走捷径。
• 保持高效、坦诚的沟通：
  • 行进中如遇身体不适、难度超出承受范围或产生任何安全顾虑，请务必第一时间告知领队。及时报告不是负担，而是对全队负责的表现。
• 尊重队友，倡导团队互助，但切忌盲目涉险、逞英雄。
• 保护野生动物与自然生态，严格遵循“无痕山林”（Leave No Trace）七大原则。
• 面对突发或极端情况，领队拥有最终决定权，有权调整路线、更改计划甚至终止活动。所有现场决策均以安全为唯一底线。
