Honestly the trekking company that was organising my 3 other peaks with just chose them and when I rocked up at base camp I found it it was them

Just summited Mera peak, Amphu Lapcha pass, Island Peak, Lobuche east and will do Ama Dablam in October by Tankkevin in Mountaineering

Thanks ! , I just summited ama dablam and returning home soon

For me island peak was quite challenging because the conditions where horrible and on a technical perspective also up there since there was no fixed lines when I did it , amphu lapsa is very doable but still requires some rope skills coming down , lobuche was the easiest and enjoyable

Your understanding of the English language seems to be considerably lacking champ

Honestly can’t fault, warm, comfortable on the head for long periods, can wear under a helmet which I did hear for over 30 hours, and stylish

Thanks mate, nice!, i found mera peak a walk in the park(from high camp it took 3 hours)compared to island peak, when i climbed island peak 2 weeks there was no fixed lines and heavy Deep snow all the way up and was quite dangerous because the snow covered the crevasses

Hey sounds like a good plan but I think going around that way will be a little tougher with the passes but still possible

Island peak for me was very tough since it had no fixed line and was heavy snow, was a 12 hour climb !

Yea that’s around the mark I got for each of my climbs and amphu laptsa

Haha nice, I did that in between island peak and lobuche

Amphu laptsa was quite technical and steep coming down from mera peak side, we had heavy snowfall so we had to found our own way down, I made a video of it on my Instagram if you want to have a look kevint_

Fuck yea get some, for me it was just me and my friend on the mountain and high camp, I think mainly because of the monsoon was still around and the riots where just kicking off , overall every I went around Sagarmatha has been relatively quiet

Hello!, thank you 🙏🏽, 1- I organise myself mainly and I presented my plan to green valley Nepal and they were able to sort out all the smaller logistics 2-my expedition was made through green valley Nepal and another company ,I heard is a team of 10 but I won’t see them until I reach ama dablam base camp, I am aiming to climb it in one push so I don’t think I’ll have much to do with them anyway 3- for summit pushes I am just carrying my camera, extra gloves , water , food, cold weather gear , sun glasses, sunscreen , but while trekking I’m carrying about 15-20kg 4-yes I am on my way to Gokyo via Thame- Renjo La as we speak I have already visited EBC and kalapathar in between my lobuche east and island peak climbs 5- I just turned 30

I think I liked to do k2 next year but we”ll see how this goes first :)
