Shishapangma
Expedition
Shishapangma
is one of the very lovely mountain of China, which
lies in the autonomous region called the Tibet of
China, only a very few people in the world had idea
about the Shishapangma before the Chinese opened Tibet
to the western summiteers in 1978. The Tibetans regard
it as the very holy mountain. It is the youngest mountain
among the peaks situated above the height of 8000m,
and there are only fourteen mountains above in the
8000m high Himalayan ranges. Till to date many climbers
have succeeded to approach on its apex.
Route
The North West normal route to Shishapangma takes
us up easy angled snow slopes up to 35 degrees with
one steeper section. The necessary lines will be fixed
and placed on the steeper or crevassed sections. Following
our acclimatization in Zhangmu & Nyalam, we will
arrive at the base camp (5000m) to make ready our
final preparations and acclimatization walks. Yaks
transport our expedition gear from Base camp 5000m,
to ABC at 5,400m. Three further camps will be place
en-route.
Camp
1 - 6,730m – After 6-7 hours walk we
reach in camp 2 through crossing many snowy slopes
by fixing ropes in the places of crevassed.
Camp
2 - 7,045m – After 5-6 hours we reach
camp 3 via steep ascent leading to very gentle ground
below the northwest ridge.
Camp
3 - 7,400m – From Camp 3, it takes
9-12 hours to reach on the summit. The situation of
the groups/climbers' progress and the condition of
the physical fitness; and also the favorable condition
of the weather depends the climbing ahead.
Some times the extra additional
days are also required for acclimatization at different
places until climbers succeeds the summit. If the
climber succeeds the mountaineering early than the
scheduled tenure they may leave the base camp before
the prescribed time as well.
Climbing
Sherpa for Himalayan:
We facilitate highly professional,
well trained and qualified climbing Sherpas for the
your expeditions. Many climbers avoid Sherpa guides
for the climbing, so because of this, they have been
found to facing many hindrances on their way. If you
take Sherpas along with you on the expedition, they
are very useful in your each and every step of support,
which makes your climbing easier to restore your strained
energy; and it gives you vigorous strength for your
next day's climbing. Most of the groups, who have
gone with the Sherpa guides on the expedition, is
found to be succeeded as per our past experiences.
So we suggest you to operate your expeditions along
with the Sherpa guides.
