Special Considerations:
- On this expedition you will be climbing in the ‘death zone’. Beginning with an imaginary line at 8,000m the oxygen in the atmosphere is so sparse that the human body cannot stay for prolonged periods of time. Climbing on oxygen on Everest is standard practice and lightweight, state of the art systems are provided for all of our members.
1:1 Guide Ratio; Please contact us for dates and prices
Having your own private Western Guide with you for the entire expedition can be an indispensable advantage, allowing you to break away from the team climb and set your own pace. A private guide also brings an additional level of climbing experience and expertise, a higher level of safety given the 1:1 ratio, feedback and personal coaching. All of our guides are trained in wilderness and emergency medicine.
