Ama Dablam update – Ready to Climb!

2 November, 2022

 

After a good puja yesterday at Base Camp the Ama Dablam team are ready to move up.  First up will be the trek to “yak camp” (the end of the trail) and then a short climb up to Camp 1 (about 18,700’) at the base of the South Ridge.  Everyone is feeling good so fingers crossed for the next few days!
