Mount
Everest is still the ultimate mountaineering adventure.
As the highest mountain in the world, Everest has immense
appeal to mountaineers and fascination for non-climbers,
but it also has tremendous allure because of its position
in Nepal's Khumbu, one of the world's most beautiful mountain
regions, and because of its remarkable climbing history.
An ascent of Everest provides immense personal challenge,
a rewarding cultural experience on approach, and a personal
connection with a rich history of exploration.
An
attempt on Mt Everest is also a major undertaking
which requires significant climbing experience, solid alpine
skills, good mountain judgment, excellent physical conditioning,
and a huge amount of dedication and determination. If you
see Everest as a definite or possible climbing goal for
yourself, we can help you through all the stages of your
preparation, from technical skills development to training
in cold weather survival skills and the gaining of climbing
experience at high altitude.
We climb Everest via the
South Col route from Nepal in the spring season because
this route and timing offer the absolute best chance of
success. Routes from the north are technically more difficult,
especially high on the mountain, and in the spring climbing
season, we gain the dual advantages of getting progressively
milder weather as we move closer to the summit and of climbing
more stable slopes because the winter winds have scoured
away much of the snow, significantly reducing the avalanche
hazard.
This expedition is a joint
American Alpine Institute / Adventure Consultants undertaking.
The Institute has the most extensive and successful high
altitude guiding record in the world, and Adventure Consultants
has the highest success rate guiding on Mt. Everest (with
64 climbers reaching the summit). Both companies are committed
to meticulous preparation. From expert Sherpas and support
staff, to careful menu planning, oxygen support, satellite
communication, environmental protection, and a mountain
clean-up plan, our expedition is finely tuned to Leave No
Trace while offering you the highest possible chances for
success
By the time you arrive
at the base camp at the foot of the Khumbu Icefall, a route
will already be established with ropes and ladders through
the icefall to Camp 1, and our strong Sherpa team will be
ferrying loads of equipment up the mountain. On your first
acclimatization foray, you'll spend several days at and
above Camp 2. On your second foray, you'll spend several
days and nights at Camp 3, and on your summit attempt, we
will climb through the established camps with lightweight
packs to Camp 4 on the South Col. All climbers will be sleeping
on bottled oxygen before setting out for the summit, carrying
only very lightweight Russian oxygen bottles.
The
expedition will be organized in such a way to allow members
to concentrate largely on their own health and performance,
without the burden of load carrying or dealing with logistics.
A doctor, who is experienced in high altitude medicine,
will be resident at base camp throughout the expedition
to monitor your acclimatization and provide for your health
care.
To gain a full understanding
of your body's response to altitude and to gain experience
with Himalayan conditions, we recommend you join us for
two expeditions prior to Everest (Alaska's Denali and Tibet's
Cho Oyu are our top choices for your preparatory steps to
the summit of Everest). Please see our web site for more
details on all these expeditions or call us to discuss our
high altitude program.
