Path strategy

Start slow for first 10 minutes.
Pause at shade opportunities, even if brief.
Keep return margin for boarding call.

Time budgeting

Segment	Suggested pace
Initial ascent	Conservative
Mid-route observation	Moderate
Return to dock	Buffer-aware

Heat and effort management

Sip water in short intervals, not all at once.
Use brief stops before fatigue builds.
Keep final third of route conservative for safe return.

Trail checklist

Shoes with grip.
Water accessible, not buried in bag.
Sun layer and cap.
Keep one buffer alarm for return.
Avoid overtaking on narrow sections.

A steady pace gets better photos and less fatigue.
