| Altitude: | | Acclimatization is important for the trekking above 3500m. Trekking schedules need to be carefully designed to maximize your ability to acclimatize safely. Ascend slowly and ensure an adequate number of rest days. However, it is still possible for mountain sickness and your Sirdar and group members should watch for symptoms throughout the trip. These symptoms are commonly headache, nausea, lethargy and sometime breathlessness. If you or any of the group members display any of these symptoms ensure a proper course of action. |
