Mt. Lakpa Ri is the easiest 7000 meter peak in the world, and
it is located right next to Everest. The North Col on Everest is a
spectacular location with incredible views and is located directly on
the main climbing route for climbing Everest from Tibet. Climbing
Lakpa Ri or up to the Everest's North Col could qualify you for
climbing Everest on our "Basic Climb". Lakpa Ri is located on a high
snow and rock ridge above advanced base camp. The slopes are 20 to 48
degrees, and feature solid snow and rock outcroppings. The North Col
on Everest is gained by ascending a steep snow and ice face with an
ascending device (Jumar) and ice axe and crampons.
The climbing could
be best described as steep walking/climbing, with climbers attached to
fixed ropes at all times, and the dates we have chosen feature some of
the most stable weather, with avalanche conditions at their most
safest of the year. Our proposed schedule allows for plenty of
acclimatization, training, practice and rest, as well as two possible
summit attempts. Our style of climbing is cautious and careful, with
excellent leadership, organization, Sherpa climbers, cooks and
waiters, tasty food, the best equipment, two full kitchens in base
camp plus advanced base camp, 1000s of meters of fixed line, hundreds
of rock ice and snow anchors, top-quality high altitude tents and high
altitude stoves, expedition mix gas, and full safety equipment:
medical oxygen, gamow bag, and extensive medical kit.
This expedition to Lakpa Ri and the North Col maximizes many years of
accumulated wisdom of the high Himalaya, a strong record of reaching
the top of 8,000ers: Everest, K2, Kangchenjunga, Lhotse, Makalu,
Cho-Oyu, Shishapangma, and many other 8,000 metre summits, in addition
to more than 25 Himalayan expeditions, in all safety, along with an
intimate knowledge of the Tibetan and Chinese officials who regulate
the permit system.
