Only the type of cold that you feel from low temperatures. You can not catch the infectious disease called the common cold from climbing mountains or from being cold. The common cold is caused by viruses that you catch from other people, it has nothing to do with cold weather. Check out the related questions in the related questions section for more about this long held belief/myth that you catch a cold from being in the cold. It is just a myth from before people knew about viruses.
