Yep, This is me on a Norwegian mountain last spring (Buren, Tromso), and since I'v hust have been over a Turkish snowy one... - here are the code:

The Norwegian Mountain Code was introduced on the basis of a series of accidents that occurred at Easter 1967, when 18 people died in the mountains. After this Easter  the Norwegian Red Cross and the Norwegian Mountain Touring made a committee that was to run the prevention work. As a result, the campaign "Operation Mountain" was launched under the motto "Welcome to the mountains - but take responsibility themselves." The Norwegian Mountain Code was revised and relaunched, and it was initiated campaigns to spread knowledge about Mountain through the media and printed matter.

 The Norwegian Mountain Code

Do not go out on the trip with no training.
Tell somebody where you go.
Show respect for the weather and weather forecasts.
Be prepared for bad weather and cold, even on short trips. Always carry the necessary equipment mountain requires.
Listen to experienced hikers.
Use the map and compass.
Do not go alone.
Turn on time - there is no shame to turn back.
Save your strength and dig down in time.
