EVEREST EXPEDITION FROM TIBET |
|
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 |
