How Long Does It Take To Climb Everest Mountain (8848.86m)? :
Well, climbing a high mountain is a long and gradual process, and it may vary on weather conditions and physical strength. And Mt. Everest is not an exception. In general, it takes around Eight to Ten days to reach Everest Base Camp after spending few days in Kathmandu. And at the Everest Base Camp, you’ll spend around six weeks on Training, Proper Acclimatization,.Rotation to the higher camps & Final Summit Push. One of the intentions of staying at Everest Base Camp for so long is getting used to cold weather, harsh environments, and being familiar with the mountain you are going to the summit.
However, the Everest Climbing Itinerary may differ according to the weather conditions and climbers‘ adaptation to the environment and other issues. So, overall in general it takes 8 to 10 weeks (55days to 70 days) for the whole process of the Everest Expedition.

Bottelneck , K2
The Bottleneck is a narrow couloir, which is overhung by seracs from the ice field east of the summit. The couloir is located only 400 m (1,300 ft) below the summit, and climbers have to traverse about 100 m (330 ft) exposed to the seracs to pass it.

Fifty-three years ago, a tragic expedition on Mount Everest forever changed the landscape of high-altitude climbing. The 1970 disaster not only tested the limits of human endurance but also highlighted the importance of safety, teamwork, and the invaluable role of Sherpas in mountaineering.

As we reflect on this pivotal moment in climbing history, we honor the courage of those who faced unimaginable challenges and the lessons learned that continue to shape the mountaineering community today.

Join us in remembering the climbers and their stories, and let's continue to advocate for safety and respect in our adventures.

Congratulations to this person for making a first ascent in alpine style of 6125m Beding Go peak in the Rolwaling area of Nepal with her climbing partner Pasang Kidar a few days ago. The name of their new route is Friendship Ridge. It’s 80 degrees at the top with massive exposure on each side.

Danika Gilbert is an alpinist that climbs 5.13 (8a) and WI5, I’ve climbed with her through the years in some truly wild places.

She is also the founder of Hamdeli, a 501(C)3 non profit. The mission of Hamdeli is “supporting activities and actions “with heart” aimed at creating a safe environment and social network among Himalayan mountaineering communities.”

Hamdeli means “with heart” in Farsi (empathy).

The vision of Hamdeli is “with mountain climbing as a core passion connecting individuals, Hamdeli strives to create opportunities that build and support safe communities, fosters lifelong friendships that transcend borders and cultures, and provide opportunities for mutual learning and personal growth.”

Danika is active in Pakistan, Afghanistan, Nepal and USA. ༄
