Empty Legs

Use horses or palkis instead of trekking to prevent high-altitude sickness.

Take short breaks whenever tired to restore your natural breathing rhythm.

Never ignore symptoms like headache, vomiting, nausea, or loss of appetite.

Avoid sarees; choose tracksuits, salwar suits, or pant–shirts.

Carry a waterproof bag to protect your essentials from rain or snow.

Keep your ID proof and emergency contact details easily accessible.

Use sunscreen, cold cream, or Vaseline to prevent dryness and sunburn.

Avoid pushing yourself when breathless — it may lead to serious complications.

Do not stop or rest near zones marked as dangerous or restricted.

Never wear slippers — use trekking or sports shoes only.

Avoid shortcuts. They may seem convenient but are extremely risky.

Never trek alone. Network failures are common — stay with your group.
