Definition
Downward travel from a summit, route or higher point to lower terrain. This is a route-planning and expedition term. Its operational meaning varies with mountain, route, season, organization and local convention, so the label should be read together with elevation, terrain, distance and logistics.
Practical use
Use it to structure route and logistics information, but verify the actual location, elevation and current conditions rather than relying on the name alone.
