when I started hiking back in early 70s, I was told by older climbers that when you are descending and approaching an ascending climber, you should step aside and let them by pass you. The logic behind this rule was that the ascending climbers have harder time to restart their ascent and it was easier for you to down climb or hike down vs them who are on the move .

I mean, almost none of these rules and bylaws are written down anywhere but many climbers in different countries believe that calling yourself as a climbers comes with series responsibilities and these sort of rules varies from one place to another so if we want to list some of the rules, what would it be ?
