Have you made your climbing plans for this autumn?

We have just completed our Spring season in Nepal, where we have had 12 members summit Everest with 15 Sherpas. Now our teams are heading to Pakistan for our Summer expeditions.

Already we are getting excited for our Autumn climbing season with Manaslu in September, Mera / Baruntse in October, and Lobuche + Ama Dablam in November-December.

Last year we launched our special Louche Peak + Ama Dablam combination expedition with 6 members. All had a fantastic time and said what a unique combination allowing for extra training and acclimatization on Lobuche Peak before climbing Ama Dablam. It was so successful that we have decided to run the trip again this year.

So why not join us in four months’ time for our special Lobuche Peak and Ama Dablam combination expedition
