Ama Dablam is a beautiful and challenging mountain.
Background
The stunning pyramid of Ama Dablam is
regarded as one of the world’s most
exquisite and sought after peaks, alongside
the infamous Matterhorn and Khan Tengri.
The ambitious and experienced mountaineer
will find the SouthWest Ridge an acceptable
challenge. This route is the standard route
up Ama Dablam which offers steep snow, ice
and rock climbing in very exhilarating and
exposed situations. Fixed lines will be used
in our ascent, to aid speed and efficient
movement on this impressive mountain.
We have had excellent summit success on all
previous expeditions and those wishing to
join should be technically proficient and
confident to Alpine AD, Scottish grade II/III
and be able to second VS/5.7 on rock.
Level
of support
The team will be led by an experienced
Adventure Peaks Leader.We have
established a good infrastructure and
employ a regular and strong team of loyal
Sherpa staff. They are supported by an
equally professional team of cooks,with
excellent facilities and hygiene creating Base
Camp facilities that are very comfortable,
allowing you to relax and build up strength
before ascending higher.
