    How we climb

    Built around getting you home.

    A rope team crossing ladders in the Khumbu Icefall

    Sherpa-led on every rope.

    Our climbing Sherpas fix the lines, carry the oxygen and make the turnaround call with you.

    One team, every permit.

    We handle your permits, Lukla flights, oxygen, insurance checks and satellite comms.

    Fresh bread at 4,750 m.

    Our cooks bake at camp. Good food and a warm mess tent keep you climbing well.

    Two climbers among seracs in the Khumbu Icefall

    We carry it down.

    Rubbish and empty oxygen cylinders come back to Kathmandu.

    “They turned us around 200 m below the top of Manaslu. Two years later, the same sirdar got us up it.”

    “Fresh bread at Base Camp, a medical kit in every tent, and porters who knew our names by day two.”

    “Our climbing Sherpa read the weather better than any forecast. We summited on the one clear morning of the week.”

    Sample reviews. Client stories coming soon.
