Expedition Support Level
Climbers can choose the level of support that suits their experience, budget and mountain they want to climb. We are able to offer 4 levels of expedition support to meet your needs and budget.
| a. |
Permits And In Country Administration Only: |
| |
Available for any peaks in Nepal, India and Tibet. Our long standing high level close contacts with the relevant authorities in each country will ensure that you are able to get underway with your expedition as soon as possible. We can also arrange hotel accommodation in the city of arrival within your budget if required. |
| b. |
Base Camp Service: |
| |
As a, above plus everything up to and including everything you need for Base Camp. You just are responsible for arrangements on the mountain. |
| c. |
Professionally Lead Expeditions: |
| |
In this format, we will provide: all arrangements up to Base Camp. A nominated experienced local Expedition Leader or local Base Camp Manager will be at Base Camp and usually above and be in radio contact with the team members, Sherpas and other staff.
Sherpas or local high altitude porters / climbers will place all camps above Base Camp as instructed by the Leader. The purpose of a Professionally Lead Expedition is to give experienced climbers the chance to climb an 8000 m peak. Such climbers would not need or expect “Guiding” in the traditional sense on the mountain. The leader would be experienced and give advice and assistance as appropriate. |
| d. |
Professionally Guided Expeditions: |
| |
The approach involves the qualified Local Leader overseeing the establishment of camps and fixing ropes, managing other Guides and being responsible for all aspects of safety on the mountain.
We mostly use highly qualified (UIAA) local indigenous Guides to support local community. These Guides are used to with these mountains, mountain conditions, so there could be no better person to guide on these high Himalayan Mountains. |
