Everest Expedition
(From Tibet Side, 8848m)
Everest in Tibet straddles the east section of the
Nepal/Tibet border, with its northern side lying in the
Tingri Country. Before 1949 all approaches had to be
made from Tibet as Nepal was closed. Once the latter
opened its doors that of the former were shut. It was
only in 1980 that Tibet was reopened for expeditions and
with that a whole new world of exciting opportunities
unfolded.
In Tibet, each mountain has its own story and each story
is the quintessence of fortitude and steadfastness, a
quality that the denizens of the land hold most
precious. Share these immortal moments with the
mountains and its people. The route is complex and
difficult and the summit day long and tiring but the
allure of climbing the Everest from the Tibet side is
always magical. Base camp is established at Rongbuk
glacier at 5180m though the real climbing starts at camp
1 at an elevation of 7000m.
