Everest Expedition North (8,848M/29029ft.) - 59 days

Everest Expedition from Tibet north face side pursued north route is a famous mountain expedition in the world. The Everest North is a relatively more straightforward route than Mt. Everest's south face climbing. Mt. Everest is the tallest mountain globally (29,029 feet/8,848 meters), an incredible challenge and experience.

We are committed to providing the highest support level with reliable and experienced climbing guides, Sherpa support, and the best high-end gear.

Climbing History

The first attempt at Everest from the north side was by a British team in 1921. George Mallory led a small group to be the first human to set foot on the mountain's flanks by climbing up to the North Col 7,003 meters (22,975 feet). The second expedition, in 1922, reached 8,321 meters (27,300 feet) before turning back—the first team to use supplemental oxygen. The 1924 British tour with George Mallory and Andrew "Sandy" Irvine is most notable for the mystery of whether they summited. If they did summit, that would precede Tenzing and Hilary by 29 years. Mallory's body founded in 1999 along the north side route, but there was no proof that he died going up or coming down. A Chinese team made the first summit from Tibet on May 25, 1960. Nawang Gombu (Tibetan) and Chinese Chu Yin-Hau and Wang Fu-Zhou, who is said to have climbed the Second Step in his sock feet, claimed the honor. In 1975, on a successful summit expedition, the Chinese installed the ladder on the Second Step. Tibet was closed to foreigners from 1950 to 1980, preventing further attempts until a Japanese team summited in 1980 via the Hornbein Couloir on the North Face. There have been 4,428 total summits of Mt. Everest up to 2014.

Everest Northeast Route Camps:

Everest Base Camp: 5,150 meters(16,700 feet)

Located on a gravel area 8 kilometers above Rongbuk Monastery, this is the end of the road. All vehicle assisted evacuations to start here, and there are no helicopter evacuations possible in Tibet. Everest Base Camp is a term used to describe two base camps on opposite sides of Mount Everest. The North Base Camp is in Tibet at 5,150 meters (16,900 ft) latitude of 28°8′29″N and longitude of 86°51′5″E. These camps are rudimentary campsites that are used by mountain climbers during their ascent and descent. Climbers typically rest at base camp for several days for acclimatization to reduce altitude sickness risks and severity.

Intermediate Camp: 6,100 meters (20,300 feet)– 6-7 hours

The intermediate camp is used on the first trek to ABC during the acclimatization process. You will also have no more than a resting place for the night where a few tents fix. This area can be lightly snow-covered or with no snow at all, depending on the weather. Most climbers only stop here, ascending to advance camp from base camp. When descending, you can walk from ABC to BC in about 6 hours, and this camp will not be necessary.

Advanced Base Camp (ABC): 6,485 meters (21,276 feet)– 6 hours

Advanced Base Camp on the north side of Everest is one of the world's highest advanced base camps. This position makes it shorter and more comfortable for climbers to reach base I, II, and III from advanced base camp. Most teams will use ABC as their primary camp during the acclimatization period, but some climbers may need to descend to the intermediate camp to acclimate due to its altitude. ABC may or may not be snow-covered and offers stunning views of the North Col.

Camp I (North Col): 7,000 meters (23,000 feet)– 5- 6 hours

Camp I is located just above the East Rongbuk Glacier. Most climbers will use crampons upon reaching the glacier. Within an hour of starting the ascent on the glacier, climbers will begin to utilize a fixed-line and cross ladders placed over deep crevasses. In some areas, the use of an ascender on the fixed rope will be beneficial. Rappelling or arm-wrapping techniques are uses to descend the steeper areas of this section. Generally, climbers will spend 4-5 nights at camp- I during the expedition.

Camp II: 7,500 meters (24,750 feet) – 5 hours

The route to Camp II consists of a steep and snowy ridge that eventually turns to rock. High winds are sometimes a problem during this section, making it especially cold. The wind and air pressure are usually higher on the north face side versus the south side. Some expeditions use Camp II as their highest camp for acclimatization purposes before beginning the summit push.

Camp III: 8,250 meters (27,390 feet)– 6 hours

Camp III lies along the steep area of the mountain that runs from 8,250-8,350 meters. A few small sites to set up camp III and different expeditions will select other regions of the same general area. This area is steep, rocky, and exposed, and tents are perched on rock ledges and generally battered by the wind. Camp III on the north side is 350 meters higher than the South Col and much more exposed. Most teams use this high camp as the last rest spot before the summit bid.

Summit: 8,850 meters (29,029 feet) 9-13 hours.

From camp III to the summit is a long and hard day. Climbers use a fixed rope through the snow-filled gully, which is part of the Yellow Band. From the Yellow Band, the climbers change their oxygen cylinder and take a small ramp up to the northeast ridge. The route veers to the high point's right, and most climbers rate it as steep and challenging. From the Mushroom Rock, located at 8,600 meters, the route can be full of loose rock, adding to the difficulty. The next part of the climb is the Second Step, the climb's crux, as climbers use the Chinese ladder. Climbers first ascend a 10-foot rock slab and then climb the near-vertical 30-foot ladder. This section is very exposed with a 9,000-foot vertical drop. It is generally more challenging to navigate on the decent since you cannot see your foot placement on the ladder rungs. Strong climbers take 9 to 10 hours to reach the summit and return to camp III, while more moderate and less experienced climbers take 11-13 hours. Most climbers use 3-4 bottles of oxygen during the summit push and other bottles between camp II and III.
