Due to unusually heavy snowfall in these areas, the NMA has requested that all expedition teams and trekkers avoid entering high mountain zones and refrain from crossing mountain passes until further notice.
Call for Safety and Coordination
The Nepal Mountaineering Association has urged all expedition teams and trekkers currently in high-altitude areas to stay in safe locations and maintain regular contact with the association and relevant trekking companies. The organization also requested trekking companies to coordinate closely with their teams and ensure all necessary precautions are taken for the safety of their clients.
Weather Forecast Warns of Continued Snowfall
According to the Department of Hydrology and Meteorology, light to heavy snowfall is expected in hilly and mountainous regions over the next few days.
The NMA emphasizes that anyone planning to travel in these areas should exercise extreme caution and take additional safety measures.
NMA Appeals for Vigilance
The Nepal Mountaineering Association concludes by strongly urging all climbers, trekkers, and trekking companies to prioritize safety, follow the advisory closely, and avoid unnecessary risks in the high mountains.
