PRECAUTIONS DURING ANNAPURNA BASE CAMP TREK
Precaution during the Annapurna Base Camp trek is very important for all trekkers or hikers in all seasons, especially from January to May. The Annapurna Base Camp trek is an easy trek that passes through beautiful mountainous villages like Gkandruk, Ghorepani, and Chomrong with green fields and hills. The trail on this trek goes up and down hills. However, trekkers can make it through the whole year by hiking. But October to December and March to June are the best seasons. December, January, and February are the winter months in Nepal when there is heavy snow fall in the mountains. From March, the snow starts melting that falls down in the form of avalanches, glaciers, and finally rivers. Sometimes they fall down as small solids and do not cause problems for the trekkers . But sometimes they fall in the form of a big solid that is very dangerous and deadly. On the Annapurna Base Camp trek, from Bamboo to Fishtail Base Camp, there are regular avalanches and they are really dangerous and have taken the lives of many trekkers. Trekkers lose their lives due to the lack of information. We can make our trip safe, adventurous, and wonderful only if we are a little bit careful and have enough knowledge of avalanches. For a safe trek, the trekkers need an experienced guide. From January to May, trekkers should be very careful while walking from Bamboo to Fishtail Base Camp and take enough information from the trekking agency and trekking experts.
I visited Annapurna Base Camp many times with tourists as a trekking leader/guide and encountered many avalanches but did not have any problems. I saw some tourists with their guide and porters spot death by avalanche. So, if you have any questions about the Annapurna base camp trek, please contact me at 977 9851089399 or trek with our company
