Shishapangma
8035m. the 14th Highest Peak in the world
Shishapangm 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 iloven 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.
