Description:
Mount Everest or locally known as Sagarmatha, 8848m is the highest point on earth discovered and measured in 1956 during the Great Trigonometric Survey of the British India Government. Being the highest point on the Earth it is also called the Roof of the World. As its name implies, Sagar means The sky and Matha means forehead, so Sagarmatha is the representation of high held head and symbolizes our courage and pride. The south face of the Everest lies in Nepal whereas the North face resides in China and has to be ascended through Tibet.
Mount Everest Expeditions is one of the challenging yet conquered expeditions in the world. Although it has been 46 years since the expeditions have started, Mt. Everest is still very mysterious, challenging and breathtaking as ever. Thousands of climbers aspire to ascend this wonderful art of nature but only about half of them succeed. First ascended by Sir Edmond Hillary and Tenzing Norge Sherpa in 1953, Mt. Everest has since then been attracting a huge number of climbers and adventure lovers. The number of expeditionary counts has been in the increasing rate. But we strongly recommend climbing other less challenging peaks like Island Peak / Lobuche Peak and other peaks for acclimatization and experience.
First, we fly to Lukla via a domestic flight and trek to the Everest Base Camp where we set up our camp at 5,300 m at the base of Khumbu Glacier and gradually ascend upwards. Khumbu Glacier is one of the most dangerous and challenging parts of this expedition but proper acclimatization and physical, technical and mental preparation should help. Our team will be fully equipped with modern equipment, satellite phone, a medicinal kit, and all essential kits. Our travel guide will set the fixed ropes and aluminum ladders to help the climbers move forward.
Standing at the top of the world and beholding the iconic sceneries and breathtaking views of Mt Lhotse and Mt Makalu are the feelings that cannot be explained in words. Although it involves high risk, Mt Everest Expedition can be the proudest thing to do in life.
