The trail then crosses a rather steep gully and from here we follow the ridgeline to the base of the glacier that reaches all the way to the summit. A sharp incline on a snowy slope takes us to the summit. Your guides will very likely attach ropes at this point – fixed and person to person.

The ascent in altitude will make it harder for you to go further. You may experience problems like altitude sickness. Since you will be spending two weeks or more for the trek, the best possible thing to do is acclimatize to the location by spending a night or two at every checkpoint. It is important to give your body enough time to adjust to the new atmosphere. In this process, your body can generate enough red blood cells to carry enough oxygen to get you going. This compensates for the low level of oxygen intake at high altitudes. Acclimatization lowers the risk of getting altitude sickness and any other problems you might face due to the altitude. It will allow you to maintain your body's performance across the change in environmental conditions.
