Can not be denied that planning is key to a successful of activities. The stage - the planning stage are as follows:
1. Ability to select, manage, and use of equipment, supplies and equipment during the trip such as the technical ability to use a map and compass, the ability ber bivouac, make fire, etc.
2. Prime physical ability. Therefore, it is necessary that physical exercise can maintain and improve fitness.

The factors in the trip planning is as follows:
1. Natural Factors includes the location of the destination, the field will be, the climate in the area of that our goal, and other things related to the environment. To anticipated this is study to make good literature, analysis of the map, collecting information from local government.
2. The case is a factor associated with the travel of personnel, including personnel selection, leader, hierarchy, descripted work and responsibilities of each, and the ability of each participant travel.
3. The factor includes technical factors, non-technical, and semi-technical.
Technical factors:
Directly related to the level of difficulty field. Some of the things including the ability of personnel preparation, scenario and the operating system, system documentation, and related safety issues.
Non-technical factors:
Resources to support operations that are not related to the level of difficulty field. Covers issues of organization and administration to support global operations.
Semi-technical factors:
This factor only in the shipping-shipping large and complex. Directly related to the level of difficulty but the field is non-technical. For example, problems of communication, the base camp team, advance-team, take in & out team, rescue team, and so forth.
Activities will be running well when starting from the beginning of an activity has been planned that are both technical and non technical. A good plan that will divide the activities into a number of phases based on the time available and the scope of work. Delays can occur due to the completion of the stages have to wait and ignorance at work can begin.
Plan of activities can vary depending on the form of activities that will be done. After the work plan is made then the new time schedule can be made for the event. Yag for a trip and we were often too complicated, do not, the planning stages have been automated we do.

Capacity building for energizer Natural Free
Many accidents that occur in natural activities open (KAT), which is caused by a lack of knowledge and skills that are owned by audiencenya. Surely, this can be avoided by increasing the knowledge and skills in activities in the open, so have the ability to adequate.
Collin mortlock, an education specialist's natural ability to categorize all that is required by the energizer in the open as follows:
1. Technical ability, associated with the rhythm and balance of movement and efficiency of use of equipment.
2. Fitness capability, include the specific fitness required for certain activities, fitness heart and circulation, and the ability to condition the body adapts to the pressure of the environment.
3. Human capabilities, namely the development of positive attitudes to all aspects to improve. This includes determinasi, confidence, patience, concentration, self-analysis, self-reliance, and the ability to lead and led.
4. Ability understanding environment, namely the development of vigilance against the danger of a specific environment.
The four abilities are not easy to be well. But keep in mind that the control ability is very necessary in berkegiatan dialam open. The concept of the four capabilities that may be more simple if we associate directly with the activities we prepared to do the activities in nature such as mountain climbing trip.

Out Door Activities
There so many activities can we get in out door, there are some kind activities that usually we found bellow :
CAMPING
Camping can be considered a recreational outdoor activity in its own right, although many other outdoor sports activities will involve finding a suitable campsite or campground and using appropriate camping gear. It ranges from the bare minimum taken by the survival camper to everything including the kitchen sink taken along by the luxury RV's and motorhomes. For everyone it is the chance to get away from civilisation and enjoy nature.
CAVING
Every cave is different and cavers all enjoy the exploration of each individual cave. It is even more exciting when you are exploring new caves not knowing what you are going to find. These days to find new caves you are likely to have to do some digging or diving. Depending on the cave a cavers will need some climbing skills, be happy to squeeze through tight spaces or not mind getting wet.
As with all adventure sports, it is important to be properly equipped. Clothing which can protect from abrasion, a helmet and lights source are essential. It is also important to have another two or three backup light sources. The type of clothing will also depend on conditions in the cave – warm or cold. Here local knowledge is an important factor. Other equipment includes ropes, first aid kit, food and bathroom supplies to remove all personal waste from the cave.
The main safety issues with caving are hypothermia, falling, physical exhaustion along with the added dangers of being caught out by flooding. To combat these proper training and well maintained equipment is a must, along with local knowledge and a weather check for rainfall to ensure there is not a flooding risk. It is also important to notify someone outside the cave with your intended return time and details where you are going. It also helps to have at least 4 in your group. This way if someone falls, one person can stay with the casualty while the other two go for help.
It is very important to remember that the caves and the species living in them are a fragile environment and great care must be taken not to damage or contaminate the cave.
Climbing
Climbing is basically using your hands and feet to move up the surface of a steep object. Rock climbing is the most familiar form of climbing but there are other types such as ice climbing and buildering (climbing up the outside of tall buildings. Mountaineering is just using various climbing techniques to assend mountains.
Cycling
For many cycling is just a form of transport, allbeit a very healthy alternative to driving or sitting on a bus. However there are also many recreational activities using the bicycle from touring and sightseeing to BMX racing on purpose built tracks. There is also mountain biking which basically involves riding specially designed bikes almost anywhere
FISHING
In ancient times fishing was simple providing food by catching fish by any means. Modern fishing is both a recreation and professional sport with various conventions, rules and restrictions.
SAILING
Sailing used to be considered a sport for the rich and although that still may be the case with luxury yachts, dingy sailing is available to all. It is not difficult to find a club or centre where the basic sailing techniques can be learned in a safe environment. These basic skills may be learned in a few days. However the mastery of sailing a boat in varying weather conditions will take considerably longer but is well worth the time and the effort. Sailing is becoming much more accessible to disabled people with new boat designs, a better understanding and recognition that outdoor sports should be available to everyone.
LIGHT WEIGHT AEROPLANES AND GLIDERS
From the late 1970's people have been looking for affordable ways to fly. This has resulted in the building of a whole variety of different lightweight slow flying aeroplanes. They are known under a variety of names - Microlights, Ultralights, ULMs and Light-Sport Aircraft. The names along with the regulations vary from country to country which is a major barrier to international trade and overland flight.
Gliders have been around a lot longer and the first competition was actually in 1920.While competition does test a pilots ability to understand local weather conditions and flying ability, many people do it simple for the enjoyment and sense of achievement.
SCUBA DIVING
Most people understand what is implied by the term Scuba Diving but I wonder how many actually realise that Scuba actually comes from Self Contained Underwater Breathing Apparatus. The first aqualung was invented in 1943 by Jacques-Yves Cousteau and as the sport became popular with recreational divers so the equipment improved in safety, comfort and ease of use. Today we have buoyancy compensators, sophisticated diving regulators, rebreathers and even dive computers.
FREE DIVING
Free diving, sometimes called skin diving is the art of swimming underwater while holding your breath. Although it is used in activities such as snorkeling and spearfishing it has now become a sport in its own right. There are a variety of disciplines within the sport, some using aids to achieve the greatest depths or distances covered on one breath. The sport is known as Competitive Apnea
Snorkeling
At it simplest snorkeling is just swimming on the surface of the water breathing through a plastic tube called a snorkel and using a mask to watch the fascinating marine life below. Snorkels have developed in recent years from the simple tube to clever devices with purge values and systems to stop water going in. Fins are also normally worn. Once a snorkeler becomes more confident and experienced they will use a certain amount of free diving to enable them to enjoy the underwater environment to the full.
Spearfishing
Spearfishing has been carried out for hundreds of years, but the sharpened wooden poles of the past have now been replaced with various powered spearguns. In the past it was a means of catching food – now it is considered more to be a sport and for this reason spearfishing with scuba gear is frowned upon. The spearfishers will normally use snorkeling gear and often hold their breath for about a minute diving down 15 – 20 metres to hunt their prey. The very best hold their breath for 2-4 minutes and can dive down to 40 metres.
SURFING
Surfing has existed in Hawaii for over 200 years but it is only since 1960 that it has evolved into a worldwide phenomenon. For many it is not just a sport but a way of life with its own culture, language and style of clothing. However don't let this put you off having a go - its fun and definitely addictive! Although the dedicated are a bit territorial over the best spots, there are plenty of beaches left for us mere mortals to enjoy.
WALKING, HIKING, TREKKING, BACKPACKING, SCRAMBLING, RUNNING
Hiking is an excellent outdoor activity for the whole family. It is a chance to enjoy the scenery in rural or wilderness areas, exercise the body and de-stress the mind.
The word hiking may be understood worldwide but in some countries tend to use other terms. It is walking in the UK, tramping in New Zealand and bushwalking in Australia.
The term trekking is used for stenuous walking through mountainous regions and the term backpacking when there are overnight camping stops. Then there is scrambling which is when the hands need to be used to scramble over rocky outcrops.
Also included in this sections are the various forms of running in the countryside - cross country running, fell running and orienteering.
WHITE WATER RAFTING
Is it a thrilling leisure activity or a dangerous sport? It is probably a combination of the two. Since it began in the 1970 it has certainly become a lot safer with legislated safety measures, better qualified operators and much improved equipment. In the past rivers have been known to swallowed up whole expeditions. Nowadays the overall risk, when using experienced operators, is considered as low. It is also now a competitive sport with international and world championship events. This competitive element of rafting began in the mid 90's.
Off Roading, Motocross and Trial Riding
Off roading is a simple a term for driving four wheel drive vehicles such as Landrovers and ATV's off road. Drivers pit their skills against all kinds of natural terrain. Motocross uses specially built motorcycles and is fast, dirty and often dangerous. Trial riding is a non-speed event, the idea being to ride a natural obstacle course without touching the ground.
Kites - Kite Surfing
Kite flying has been practiced for over a thousand years and gradually over the years it became popular recreational activity. Kite Surfing is a rapidly growing new sport. Numbers grew from about 30 in 1998 to 200,000 in 2006. Your body is the only connection between the board and the kite. You have to learn to pilot the kite and steer the board at the same time.
Powerboats, Zap Cats and Jet Skis
Power boats have a high power to weight ratio and the hull is design to plane over the water which allows for high speed. Zap Cats - basically small inflatable catamarans - have an incredible speed and cornering ability. Jet Ski's are capable of high speed and excellent maneuverability and are like motorbikes on water.
Shooting - Archery
This is a vast subject but for the purposes of this website we have included links to game shooting, rifle shooting, shotgun sports like skeet, trap and clay pshooting. Also covered are the various forms of archery along with the rather less serious paintballing sites!
Skateboarding
Unlike most of the outdoor activities on this website, skateboarding is an urban sport. Sometimes it is considered an extreme sport although to skateboarders it is often seen as an art form, hobby or just a means of transport.
Snow Sports - Skiing, Skateboarding, Dog Sledding, Snow Mobiling
Skiing, as we know it today saw its beginnings at the end of the 19th Century, whereas snowboarding developed 100 years later and did not become an olympic sport until 1998. Dog sledding and snow mobiling also included.
Water Skiing - Wakeboarding
Water skiing was invented in the early 1920's. Beginners using two skis are pulled along at speeds of about 25-35 kilometers per hour. Wakeboarding developed as a combination of water skiing, snow boarding and surfing techniques and the towing speeds are less.
CAMPING
Camping can be considered a recreational outdoor activity in its own right, although many other outdoor sports activities will involve finding a suitable campsite or campground and using appropriate camping gear.

Free Nature activities between Hobby and Profession
Maybe not all of us realize that any little thing that is done by using what is already owned at this time can become a profession. Whistle and territorial capital and certain people have become parkingman. Singing even if it can be flat with little skill with guitar so people can at least “pengamen” (musicians). With some car or home is a capital that will make us choose a profession, the automobile (car rental) or the property (“Juragan Kost”).
What is the core fact that we can pull the conclusions of the things that, no other is the potential and resources of the people that will make they life, ofcourse.
To further narrow the scope in this paper, we want to explore the world that the author very own interest in it, that is free of natural flare and a very young are particularly subject. What makes it interesting is that adrenalin is required for this activity, so for those who have not yet or not ready to burn adrenalinnya please be patient first.
Embryo of this segment of the energizer is a natural energizer for free, whether the name or nature lovers the mountain climber, who was born from groups both Nature Lovers level school, university or from the General Group. Without they realize, this has been provided for the profession of this promise.
Who does not know the mountain climber, wear makeup and accessories has made them different from the others. There is no mountain too high for them can not be mounting, the peak is everything for them, but one thing that we must believe, they have the capital to do it all (energizer professional). Who does not know Whitteker James or Reinhold Messner is without doubt the work they claim is the mountain climber.
Perhaps we have not been able to express the rough "pekerjaanku mountain climber" when referring to the habits and accept the power of eastern solely oriented material and appearance only. But that is not expected to directly, but what is owned by a mountain climber. A mountain climber is prepared to recognize in the field and ready for any condition, but the most important for them is "Safety first". For all the things that they are provided with special knowledge and skills. A Science course Navigation, Survival, Moutaineering, travel management and more. Can we imagine knowledge that belongs to a mountain climber (not a fake).
Many energy and mountain climber's expertise is needed in the world of work, especially field work at this time. A course, the survey consultant project their power needs in the field because of the ability and skill in the field and the situation on the side of management in the field. Navigation knowledge they need when implementing technology requires the field. A GPS will be useful in the hands of an expert (mountain climber) is the mapping project, field research, and others. Their strength will be very helpful for the project activities that chase each run, and the experience they needed to make a wise decision in the field.
In time to open a local natural attractions, natural energizer that will open in this call for the project. For example when you want to Solok Regency interesting tourists who want to ride to Mount Kerinci, they will try to open an entrance to Mount Kerinci themselves from their area. And who they're looking to do the project? When Walls Arau stood majestic and beautiful without that thing in the sale, who can give power to the tourist attraction to make a wall climb? He is a mountain climber.
In the case of simple is better, who will be searching, if there is demand for the pilot (guide) or porter to certain areas such as forests or mountains rise, surely the people and the field course. So do yourself a minder with a mountain climber and therefore is a promising profession, how we live and the campaign will have the ability.
Now this is being flare areas outbound everywhere. What's on offer in this area outbound. Various types of games that attract the visitors certainly adrenalin. Area in this game, safety is a price for everything, and who understand the case if the not-free natural energizer. They were provided with climbing knowledge, communication, and even P3K practical. Can be people that this is a great asset and is sought today by the developers this business.
In the case of tariffs or sallary, their profession offers sallary the rather large. While now they have been valued as a professional not only incoming class expert but personal. For the porter as they valued Average 100,000 rupiah per day. So, whether we are still doubts for the business segment that is growing this ..?

Mount Dempo 3159 mdpl
Mount Dempo (3159 mdpl) located in the border province of South Sumatra and Bengkulu provinces. To reach the nearest village, first you must reach the city Pagar Alam, approximately 7 hours drive from Palembang land. South Sumatra's capital is available to the many bus Pagar Alam. Or if you are from, before you can ride bus or Bengkulu, Padang, and down in Lahat.

Although the mountain is high enough, but the water is clear there is a half-way up the mountain to the climber so that this does not worry about running out of drinking water during the trip. A small crystal clear river, flowing in the border forest omen we start to enter the forest area with plants that are similar as we find in the mountains Gede-Pangrango, namely forest montana. Pathways with full root-root of the cross, slope gradient steep enough to own rack sweat. There are no special signs, the forest is almost homogeneous and very quiet.
Four or five hours later, we will enter the area with vegetation plants trees with the lower and lower, some slightly open, a view also to be knowledgeable. Gunung Dempo with two peaks of the only named Peak fire. Towards the top of the first Dempo, which is plain masif, first peak that there is a plant similar to low perdu. From the first summit we descend back to the valley which is between the first peak and the main peak. In this valley, there is a source of water flowing here. Only the water is crystal clear that it's a little wrinkled, may be the influence of seepage sulfur.
Climbing to the top of the main is not too difficult. Slope of its gravel and stones with a slope of approximately 40 ° slope, stable enough for the mounting. Dempo main peak of the mountain (3158 m), is a volcanic crater which still flare with a diameter of approximately one hundred square meters. Crater wall is steep and may not be in the rock turuni without ropes. Landscape is very beautiful from the top.

Anssel Adams
How much of the image sheet? If you are to Pasar Baru, Jakarta, the price sheet photo stars F4 (F she) is the size of a postcard five Rp 5,000. This is expensive because, besides merely repro aka pirated images, printing costs sheet color postcards is only Rp 1,000. However, what if there are images that price sheet around Rp 300 million?
Thus images entitled Tetons and Snake River, Grand Teton National Park made in 1942 years of Anssel Adams (20 February 1902-22 April 1984) from the United States, original prints, it is indeed valuable. Another paper titled Adams Moonrise, Hernandez in 1941 is also worth the same. Photos of Adams category entry price is still cheap around 10,000 U.S. dollars alias around Rp 80 million, such as the Dunes, Oceano, CA, 1963.
Currently, in some places in the U.S. are warning photo exhibition took place 100 years old Ansel Adams. Some offices also send news photos Ansel Adams to newspapers that subscribe to it.
Why are photos Ansel Adams prints in the form of the original value so expensive?
Anyone who saw the original photos of Ansel Adams, the general picture of the nature of black and white, will agree that these photos are very unusual. In addition to nature that is presented is very beautiful, the detail in an image, including contrast and there is no prevailing lighting cacatnya. Can be said, the work of Ansel Adams is the highest achievement in art and photography.
There are some who say, photographs of Ansel Adams look good because of the nature is good. However, surely not the case. Many photographers try taking the same nature with the photogenic Ansel Adams, with the same angle and lighting that is designed the same. The result, generally far below the work of Adams.
Photography Ansel Adams work is generated through the mind in which, experience in the photo laboratory for many years, and the patience and tenacity in the field. A day he worked 18 hours. And, hard work is in progress for many years. Adams does not know at all holidays. To reach the place of shooting, Ansel Adams often must walk for hours, even many days, with very heavy equipment. Camera that Ansel Adams used almost always large format camera.
Results of the field, Adams is a recent theory that black and white photography is very popular, the Zone System. With this system, each tone in a natural correlation with the thickness in a black and white photos. So, at the Ansel Adams photo of each, we could see the white and black appear in parallel with a variety of captivating gray gradation on the same sheet.
Adams did not require correction in the printing of all photographs. Once again, all the photos. Ansel Adams print images with the print length is exactly the same in all the photos because the lighting precision Adams made it as that. Also, the position of enlarger (tool prints) are always fixed, depending on the size of paper that is used only. Adams produced a negative result is final.
However, the biggest criticism of Adams is how poor the images of objects chosen. Famous photographer Henri Cartier Bresson once said, "This world is very diverse. But the photogenic (Ansel) Adams and (Edward) Weston only coral and trees."
Ansel Adams was born and raised in San Francisco. His father, Charles Hitchcock Adams, a businessman. His mother, Olive Bray, just a normal housewife. As children of single parents who marry late (Ansel was born when his mother nearly 40 years of age), Ansel Adams get enough attention. Since he appeared little more ingenuity, is also very active. In a biography, active physical Ansel Adams akan hiperaktif are categorized as to the definition at this time. In addition, Ansel also carry disleksia (interference difficulty reading). As a result, Ansel experiencing difficulties in school. Finally, a formal education only up to level Ansel eight in the U.S., or roughly equivalent to junior secondary.
In the year 1907, Adams family bankrupt. And since then, the economic hardship the family is. The only excitement is a small Ansel enjoy nature, near the Golden Gate bridge. Almost every day he was seen playing the piano there, after finishing the course which he followed.
Since dozens of age, Adams is pleased with the camera taking no1 Kodak Box Brownie was given his father. At age 17, he joined the club a lover of nature, Sierre Club. In this club he also met his wife, Virginia Best, married years ago in 1928, that gave him two children. Despite the active nature lover activities while taking pleasure, ideals Adams at this time is to become a musician.
Thus, the very year that determine the career Adams was 1927. In the year, he was the serial images "Monolith, the Face of Half Dome in Yosemite National Park. In the year that also, he can claim to be separated from the influence of shadow Albert M Bender, a prominent San Francisco art, while leaving the desires to become a musician.
Other big point is when he met photographer Paul Strand in 1930, also Alfred Stieglietz. Since then Adams has created the straight photography, or photos without any manipulation, there is no dodging and burning in the process.
In 1927, Adams met with Edward Weston, and both establish Group f/64 in 1932. This group is a group of photographers who take photos of the diaphragm with only 64 (very small) to obtain maximum image sharpness. Even though this group is running with the half-kidding, this is the group prestige up photography as art now.
Even though the photos are very precious expensive, until the 1940s that Adams is not a rich photographer. He is still often difficult money, as seen in his letter to Weston, "Many, O, kerjaanku. But, I still just poor."
Many of the books that have been made. His otobiografi it is not finished because he hurried died in 1984. However, the book Mary Street Alinder completed and published in 1985.
The other book is the John Muir Trail (1938), Michael and Anne in Yosemite Valley (1941), Born Free and Equal (1944), Illustrated Guide to Yosemite Valley (1946), Camera and Lens (1948), The Negative (1948) , Yosemite and the High Sierra (1948), The Print (1950), My Camera in Yosemite Valley (1950), My Camera in the National Parks (1950), The Land of Little Rain (1950), Natural Light Photography (1952) , Death Valley (1954), Mission San Xavier del Bac (1954), The Pageant of History in Northern California (1954), and Artificial Light Photography (1956).

Research experts said the 19 fish species live in fresh water habitat of Lake Singkarak, Kabupaten Solok and Tanah Datar, West Sumatera (Sumatra), with the availability of food is limited.
From the 19 species, three species of which have a high population density, ie, fish Bilih / Biko (Mystacoleusus padangensis Blkr), Asang/Nilem (Osteochilus brachmoides) and Rinuak.

With only 19 species of fish that live in Lake Singkarak indicates diversity of fish in that place is not too high. Mesogotrofik Lake Singkarak conditions which cause this power to support the habitat for development and growth of organisms such as plankton and water betos, very limited.
Several times from the research showed a population of plankton and betos in Lake Singkarak very low.
While plankton community (fitoplankton and zooplankton) is the basis of terbentuknya a food chain and very important role in the ecosystem of a lake.
Conditions, the main source of nutrition natural fish are usually different types of plankton and bentos.

Norman Edwin
Norman Edwin is adventurous sports lovers that have been in Indonesia, he is known as a daredevil and personally like to help by family and friends jurnalist fellow Kompas is the final work. Norman died at the age of 37 years with his colleague Didiek Samsu Rev Triachdi at Peak climb Aconcagua (6969m), which extends along the mountainous border Chile - Argentina, when he joined in the Seven Summit Expedition 1992 - Mapala UI. Didiek also recorded as a magazine journalist in Jakarta Jakarta.
Indonesia sorrow, natural overwrite Expedisi Seven Summit in mid-April 1992 yank two best climber, Norman and Edwin Didiek Samsu Rev. Triachdi. National and international media covered the many events this catastrophe two climber. Norman led the team at that time Lovers of Nature, University of Indonesia who joined the UI in Mapala efforts Peak climb Aconcagua Chile 6959-mtr. The mountain also called 'The Devil's Mountain' because of the weather factors that can not be predicted, often snow storms over the mountains during the day spend. Peak as a goal to become one of the High Peak in the Peak Expedisi Seven World Mapala UI.
Seeing the knowledge search in the cave, mountaineering, Cruises, and a number of major tourist attractions of Rescue in Irian Jaya, Kalimantan, Africa, Canada and even Himalaya, forms the speed and physical strength in himself that have joined in Mapala UI since 1977. Until finally selected to be Leader in Expedisi with Didiek, Rudy "Becak" Nurcahyo, Fayez Mohamad and Dian Hapsari, only one women in the team is.
In fact many doubting the ability Norman, far Expedisi days before the start of this, but experience during 15 years in a variety of hazards and face, believed to make them permanent departure. Expedisi time progresses, snow storms strike team this duet and finally grasp this climber. Didiek corpse was first discovered on 23 March a report on the climber a few other countries who see their chance in the last two 6400m altitude, a few hundred meters before the top again.
Also reported at that time, the condition is very critical to them, some finger Norman Frosbite affected (because the cold Frozen Dead), and suffering Didiek Snow blindness (snow blind) emission due to excessive sunlight, snow carpet in the rebound plateau. The likelihood is very close to this as Google (Snow glasses) used Didiek out. Norman corpse found a few days and then fly directly to Jakarta on 21 April 1992.
Speculation appears through the media that their failure is also caused due to lack of equipment carried. Aconcagua Mapala selected after the UI plan Expedisi Peak Seven other World Cartenz the Pyramid (4.884 meters) in Irian Jaya; McKinley (6.194 meters) in Alaska, United States; Kilimanjaro (5.894 meters) in Tanzania, Africa, and Elbrus (5.633 meters) in Soviet Union (now Russia).
A year later after this tragedy, the UI Mapala membership status is valid for life, try to send back the other two members Tantyo Build and Ripto Mulyono to complete the climb Aconcagua classmates Expedisi to Vinson Massif (4.887 meters) at the South Pole. And one in the Himalaya Everest Peak by the name Team Expedisi University of Indonesia, but also my failures befall this team.
Two failure apparently does not kill the spirit Mapala UI, because the peak of the last still be the target for the next Expedisi Association which consists of Mapala UI, Koppassus and Wanadri. 'We are trying to do a combination of climbing Everest in 1997 and was successful, two-member team of soldiers Koppassus namely Asmujiono and Misirin successfully reached Everest Peak. " Rudy said "Becak" Nurcahyo Korean National Team members to Everest which also lost fingers because Frosbite in Expedisi Aconcagua.
'We try our best to realize it's all .. and I believe Norman Didiek and there will be smiling to see the success of Team Everest this. Although after 1997, Indonesia was the economic crisis and the reform that is not the other. This condition is automatically prevent further Expedisi-expedisi who have planned .. added.
For Norman’s wife, Karina, and Melati his daughter, her warm and eksentrik Norman remains the memories will not forget. During life, Melati and always be in the outdoors activities that digeluti that his father, including a trip to Irian Jaya when he was still small. 'Norman to be a little adventurous and sincere compare between-climber climber who have years of 1970-80, and is Didiek close friend.
He showed respect to women and believe that women can do things better than men, especially concerning the safety factor, for example, The Cave 'said Karina, which was also active in the activities the outdoors their return from Australia and take the course again Archeology Department at the University of Indonesia .
'Norman once said, the women activists tend to be quiet, do not panic and can easily overcome the emergency situation when compared with men. For me it was very humorous and have a high spirit alive. Similarly, I feel Melati, the nature of his father to him, although this decline it is still a teenager. Do not we try to conquer nature, but learn to conquer ego and know the limits of ourselves, this factor is the most important if you want to remain on the high-risk sports' said Karina who also participated in the first team in Expedisi Cartenz Irian Jaya in 1981 and currently has Doctoralnya complete the program in the Australian National University.
Norman and Didiek have died, but strong diffluent spiritnya in the heart of the sports lovers of the outdoors Indonesia. They should receive the award on the courage and indomitable spirit of abstinence, so it can be an example for the young adventurer-wanderer is still there

Lovers of Nature and Environment
Impressed by a rumor that in which the lovers of nature at this time. This question is at once a puzzle that appeared to still have people who know about the nature lovers.
In general consists of various elements of community college students, student organizations until the PA (the lovers) common mushroom is also present today. Popular in University in a Mapala (Mahasiswa Pecinta Alam) and in High School the name famous with Sispala (Siswa Pecinta Alam).
In general, people know is the nature lovers who like to have a hobby or ascend the mountain with a long and shaggy hair, clothes, accessories that typically signifies a lover of nature. Unfortunately opinions attached to the PA itself is more on the negative connotations, this is more often due to the occurrence of vandalism practices in the mountains, where wanawisata even in the top of the mountain even though there is a spike-spike fraudulent. Irrespective of whether this act of a nature lovers or just coincidence that fraudulent people who ascend the mountain just take spidol or spray paint.
Because difficult to distinguish between the genuine nature lovers who care about nature and the environment, or nature lovers who do not have a fake feeling of concern in the nature and the environment, supposition is the more knowledgeable of the social behavior that is not commendable, such as making noise in the middle of the night screaming and cry even more surprised more often is finding a variety of condoms to waste even in certain places, who else, if this is not the person who often play to the mountain.
Apart from the negative connotations before, nature lovers have a position which is very important role in the young generation to build awareness of this nature as we see Does the activity (green action)or action made by a few clean nature lovers. This indicates there is a perception that is still not known by most people about the nature lovers who are not in session berkutat climb the mountain.
However, in the rank political environment, nature lovers tend to be political, in the environmental movement as a whole has not been lovers of nature show a synergy of dynamic movement, it seems there is no one thinking tactical movement in the nature lovers scrutinize government policies that are not environmentally friendly. Furthermore the role of student nature lovers, is still little action advocacy from students of nature lovers to environmental problems. This gave the impression apathetic to advocate for victims of pollution to the environment or the rejection of the plan does not consider the environment.
Quoted from a note Gerlorfd Nelson United States senator in 1970 that was delivered in the Catalyst Conference Speech Illionis of 1990, he said "if you want to change the country for activities that are difficult issues of political policy, lovers of the environment are a source of strength with what can be done, if you want to have the State for the purposes of economy, think about yourself and generations to come, we are confident you can do". Note that this becomes the basis for discourse in the environmental movement against global capitalism.
