Mount Everest at 8,848 meters/ 29,035 feet is perhaps the most coveted mountain in the world. The expedition of  Everest from the north (Tibetan) side is a comparatively easier way to climb rather than the south side, and the dates we have chosen feature the best weather of the year. Our proposed schedule allows for a careful and safe ascent, as well as multiple full descents to Chinese basecamp and/or a lower village. The style of climbing is cautious and careful, with excellent leadership, organization, Sherpa climbers, ‘walkie-talkie’ radios, satellite telephones, the best oxygen bottles and apparatus available.

During the drive, trek and on the climb, our experienced staff is with you all of the ways. Our helpful climbing sherpas are some of the best. They are real high-altitude star-performers and very friendly. Our leader is a highly experienced, friendly, and well-organized professional with multiple ascents of Everest. Our skillful basecamp and advanced basecamp cooks prepare delicious, fresh, tasty food and hot drinks at least 3 times a day.

On Trek:

Our western leader, together with friendly and helpful sherpas, cooks and local people leading yak caravans carry all of your personal equipment, group equipment, and set up camp each day, prepare and serve delicious meals, so you can relax and enjoy the trek. You do not need to carry a heavy rucksack during the trek. Our comfortable basecamp and ABC: Our cooks will serve you delicious meals in our heated dining tent.

On The Mountain:

Our leader and group sherpas will fix the route, set up the high camps and carry the group equipment, such as tents, stoves, etc. If you wish to help out, we welcome you to do so, otherwise just relax and focus on getting well acclimated and achieving your goals. You do not need to carry a heavy rucksack during the climb.

Sherpas:

We have many group sherpas to help the team. For an additional expense, we can also provide personal sherpas and climbing-guides to individual members who wish to have their own private sherpa.

Basecamp:

Features your own private sleeping tent or shared depending on the itinerary. Advanced basecamp tents are based on a sharing basis. We have comfortable, dining tents with tables where our cooks will serve you delicious meals.

Trek to advanced basecamp: A beautiful trek to the base of the highest peak in the world. This trek is very accomplishable by the average person who enjoys walking. Normally, you never step on snow and there is no climbing, only walking on moraine trails. From basecamp, we trek up the amazing Rongbuk glacier, also known as the “Golden Highway”, where there are gorgeous views of stunning peaks in the area, including Lakpa-Ri and all of its “Little Sisters”, as well as Changtse and of course Everest. At 6,400 meters/21,000 feet, Advanced Basecamp (ABC) must be the highest basecamp in the world.

After ABC, Clip into the fixed lines for a sloping glacier walk up to the North Col (camp 1) at 7000 metres/24,900 feet. There is one steep section of 50-80 degrees. North Col is a pass between the Everest North East Ridge and Changtse. There are incredible views here, looking towards Pumori in Nepal, as well as Lhakpa Ri.

From the North Col, we ascend the glacier and eventually the rocky north ridge to set up Camp 2 at around 7500-7800 metres/24,600 feet.

After camp 2 the trail traverses to the west and up the north face around and through a series of 30-degree gullies and slopes before reaching the site of Camp 3 at 8,300 meters/27,200 feet.

Rest Days:

We will be taking a lot of them throughout the expedition of Mount Everest. In fact, we might even descend to a low village for three-four days to soak up the sunshine and thicker air before our final summit push. During your rest days, we encourage you to concentrate on recovering, eating and drinking, to read, relax, listen to music and stroll around visiting other teams

Summit Attempt:

From Camp 3, we will make our final summit push. Climbers must first make their way through three rock bands known as the first, second, and third steps. Step 2 in particular, is an exciting rock-buttress to ascend with the presence of an aluminum ladder placed by a Chinese team in 1975 and since repaired by a five-star commercial team. After surmounting the 3rd Step, the summit is ahead. Once above these steps, the final summit slopes (35 to 58 degrees) to the top.

Who is This Trip for?

We encourage men and women from around the world, of all ages to join us as an individual team member or with your own group, whether that is your spouse, partner, friends, sibling, clients, colleagues, etc. Most of our members join as individuals, our team dynamics work well, and we are able to build successful and safe groups that enjoy trekking, climbing, and traveling together.
