I have been seeing different post about Mrs Anita Crypto Fx everywhere and a lot of traders keep on saying reach out to her, I eventually did and it turns out to be legit. I did an initial investment of $1000 and I received a surprised profit of $12,250 after 6days of trading, I followed her instructions with which i invested and within a week I got back my profit, I started seeing good results. Last week l made a successful withdrawal. Just stop worrying she will help you out. Thank you very much Mrs Anita. I would advise anyone seeing this post to contact her, I am responsible for the content I post here on Facebook, I am so serious about this you can inbox her directly via: Email: anitacrypto44@gmail.com WhatsApp: +12133736954

I went for Sar Pass trek with friends. Even though this was the first time of all of us, we were so excited and booked the first batch this year. Now that I am reliving the experience, it was no less than wonderful. The trek, from the organizer point of view, was nicely organized. There were 3 guides with us to help us on the way and they always cared for us. They helped a lot on the way, motivating and making us do it. Without them this was definitely impossible. I particularly remember Prem Bhai and Charan sir. Everyone else along with camp leaders were good too. The food was nutritious and healthy. Nobody got sick, thank god, even in that altitude. The bathrooms can be better. On the last day, we have to go in the pine forest but it was no big of a deal. Things is, at those times, we were at mercy of nature with limited options. That reminds me, one day we had to get up at 3 am in morning and started walking at 5 to avoid sun melting now. It was harsh but we adapted and trainers there helped along. So, at end, thanks Kailash Rath and the team for helping us out and making this happen safely. Really nice work and keep it up!!

I did the sar pass trek with kailas rath treks which started on 22nd of april. Their site says the trek is beginner's trek but FYI it is not at all a beginner's trek. The video which they have made of the trek only shows the camps and not the trek towards them which was extremely exhausting and tiring.Had i known it was going to be this tiring i would have never gone for this trek. On the last day of our trek the guide lost his way costing us 5hours of extra walk, which was super unprofessional on their part. The food and tents were good at every camp site.

I attended batch #2 of Sarpasstrek with Kailashrath dated from 21st April to 26th April & the experience was wow. My sincere thanks to Kailashrath Treks #kailashrath & team allowing me a seat inspite of having no room & for all the hospitality right from starting of trek to completion. Your team is doing an outstanding job for making this journey successful. Our trek leader Kaku ji , Rama ji, Pawan Ji & camp leaders have made possible to complete this trek successfully. Efforts put by these leaders is just unimaginable considering such high altitude. Cheers am going to remember this journey . . . #positivevibes 😃😊✌️ Go for sar pass trek with Kailash Rath, Highly recommended 😀😀

I had been for Sar pass trek organized by Kailash Rath. it was an incredible experience , I was captivated by the beautiful valleys and snow clad peaks of Sar pass. I was enchanted by the beauty of the nature that was at offer . The whole trek was designed keeping in mind safety , health and fitness of the trekker. plus i felt it was value for money . trek leads (Kaku ji, Ramu , Guy with Linkin Park cap( Neymar Jr look alike )) were supportive and motivated us during our journey into the wild . they strongly advocated discipline which is crucial for the success of the trek. I strongly recommend this trek to people who want to go for it.
