Many different factors - some are essential, others are useful. It also depends on the type of mountain, the qualities needed to climb
the worlds highest mountains are very different from those needed for a one or two day trip up smaller mountains.
In all cases a good level of physical fitness is required plus of course the ability to use the correct equipment in the correct manner
- e.g. knowing how to navigate, knowing safety and first aid procedures.
One important quality is to know your own limits and be able to recognise the limits of others. Many problems arise when people push themselves too far.
In extreme mountainerring a person needs to be very focused and psychologically balanced. At very high altitudes (what's known
as the death zone), most people become disorientated and effectively start losing their mind.
