  1. Your health is monitored three times a day. We check your vitals thrice daily, ensuring we nip any health issues in the bud, even before they show up.
  2. Our trek leaders are handpicked outdoor experts. Our trek leaders are hand-picked and undergo rigorous training in wilderness first aid and emergency care. Our training is so intensive that only 70 per cent make it through our training.
  3. We always have a HAM kit handy (High Altitude Medical Kit). The HAM kit contains 17 essential medicines, including three life-saving drugs. They also carry bottled oxygen. Our trek leaders are always ready to handle medical emergencies.
  4. We have an evacuation kit ready for emergencies. With a stretcher, two oxygen cylinders, and an emergency shelter, our teams have tested evacuation protocols in place. They can carry out smooth evacuations even in the middle of the night.
  5. Our radio communications are always in hand. Except in border areas, our teams are in constant touch through radio communication, ensuring that help is just a push of a button away.
  6. We are always transparent with you. Whether good news or bad, we always keep you informed about the routes, weather and risks involved in your trek.
