Additional Information
The Mount Everest climbing expedition via North side has become more popular as it is relatively safe from crevasses, avalanches and rock falls. Of course it's the highest summit and one of the hardest climbs in the world so one should be mentally and physically strong. The North side temperature is little colder than the Nepal side so the best quality mountaineering equipment is strongly recommended. The summit day is mostly rocky so when you are training make sure that you practice on mixed rock, snow and ice terrain with your alpine or triple boots and crampons to get yourself used to it.
This expedition with us has as standard a ratio of one to one climber: guide and will be lead by Tendi Sherpa 10 times Everest summiteer.
Many Everest encounters have been seen and there are unseen obstacles such as the earthquake in 2015, avalanches, high altitude, harsh weather and health problems. We must all understand and give our first priority on making the safest decisions. Our aim is to totally support all of the group to reach the summit as best as we can, and return safely. We will give you the best options to achieve your dream of reaching the summit. Your achievement is our achievement too.
Each team member will get 1 Sherpa each including one mountain guide for a group of 2-5 people. The mountain guide will be with the group members throughout the expedition for their assistance, training as necessary and safety. Sherpas will be carrying for the members' above the ABC and will be fully alongside the clients for their summit push.
