There is probably no other country in the world that
arouses as much curiosity as this vast expanse of
myth and religion known to the world as Tibet. Steeped
deep in religious mysticism and ancient practices.
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.
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.
Since the earliest Himalayan expeditions the North
Ridge has represented staggering achievement. It was
this side of the mountain that the pioneering British
expeditions of the early 1900's had come. Reinhold
Messner had this to say. "......the north side
of Everest was to me one of the most historic and
interesting places of all".
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
