What should I consider when going to see snow in Taroko National Park?

1. Safety at high altitude:
(1) Since the place for enjoying the snow is in the high mountains, those who have heart disease, breathing difficulties, mountain sickness, significant illnesses, the elderly (over 65 years old) and the young (under 10 years old) are not suitable to go visit areas of high altitude.
(2) Check the weather and road conditions and inspect your vehicle before going up the mountain.
(3) Those going to enjoy the snow should pay attention to their body to maintain warmth, wear waterproof shoes, sunglasses, and prepare supplements such as hot energy drinks, water, and medicine.
