 AMA
DABLAM EXPEDITION ( 6856m )
Ama Dablam has long been considered the prettiest mountain
in the world. High on her Southwest face hangs a glacier
resembling a 'Dablam' - the sacred ornament box worn
by ladies in the Sherpa community. It was this spectacular
feature that got her the name "Ama Dablam".
She lies alongside Everest in the heart of the Khumbu
valley offering a superb climb up a spectacular ridge.
The route we follow begins at Lukla (2850m) and the
initial days of the trek pass through the legendary
Sherpa country up the spectacular high valley of the
Khumbu. Much of his route on the actual climbing is
fixed with no icefall or glacier to negotiate, and most
of it is concentrated on the crest of a ridge. The climb
is relatively safe though exposed and sheep and not
really a mountain for debutantes.
