But this peak will be a challenge for those people with no experience walking into high altitudes. The temperature is somehow cold, and the weather may be stormy on the top. Similarly, the thinness of the air makes ascent difficult. Before reaching the peak, it is important to fully acclimate your body. It could be fatal if your body is unable to adjust to the thin air.
