There are so many similarities between playing tennis and climbing mountains. Both sports require great mental strength, excellent physical conditioning and movement along with lots of technical skill. We met with former Irish professional tennis player James McGee (who played US Open) is now a keen hiker. Hopefully he will join us in the Himalayas in the future for some amazing treks and climbs. Furtemba Sherpa showed some great tennis skills while he made his debut on the tennis court. Winning Wimbledon maybe more difficult to achieve than climbing Everest but less risky. Both take hard work, belief, passion, super focus, good team work and guidance, some good luck and many other factors to achieve your dreams!

The Irish mountains aren’t known for their height. The main challenge while hiking or climbing in Ireland is the weather. A couple of days ago while climbing Irelands highest mountain, Carrauntoohil (1,038 m / 3,407 ft), the mountain Gods were looking down on us when Furtemba Sherpa climbed his 1st Irish mountain. The bog lower down was little bit tricky while up near the summit there was some nice mixed scrambling on snow, rock and ice. Congratulations Furtemba Bai on your summit success. Great way to start 2025 and get some much needed exercise after the Xmas and new year celebrations.

Fáilte romhat, Furtemba Sherpa (IFMGA Guide and 6 time Everest summiteer) go Baile Átha Cliath. Very excited about the upcoming World Sherpas Ireland Expedition and having you spend Xmas and new years with family and friends. Praying for good weather to climb Irelands highest mountain, Carrauntoohil (1,038 m / 3,400 ft) and for our adventures around the country.

There are two major obstacles to overcome while climbing from Camp 3 (7,200 m / 23,625 ft) to camp 4 (7,950 m / 26,086 ft) on Everest, from the Nepal side. The first is the Yellow Band seen in the first two pictures. Although not very technical, given the high altitude and depending on the conditions of the mountain, it can pose a challenge for people with some rock and ice scrambling. Once over this, you traverse across the Lhotse face towards the Geneva Spur. Climbing over the Geneva Spur is challenging. When you reach the top of this section, it is a gentle stroll into Camp 4 which is located just below the death zone. From here, we prepare for our summit push to the roof of the world.

The 1st Ascent of Beding Go (6,125 m /20,095 ft) in the Rolwaling valley was one of our most memorable climbs to date. Although it was one of the more challenging climbs and very technical, it was an experience of a lifetime and an amazing adventure going into the unknown, to climb this mountain. In the first photo you can see the route we took (South face and Southeast Ridge). Once on the ridge there were 6 rock pillars that we had to overcome before making the historic summit. You can read the trip report on the link below. Bookings are open for many different options of trek and climbing in the beautiful Rolwaling valley next April/May 2025 or Oct/Nov 2025 along with many other treks and climbs around the world. Pick you trek or climb, choose your dates, start training and enjoy the journey.

A few weeks ago, Nepal mountaineering history was made when Mingma G Sherpa from Rolwaling valley, climbed Shishapangma (8,027 m / 26,335 ft) and completing his quest to climb all fourteen 8,000m peaks without supplementary oxygen. Mingma was one of the first people to climb K2 in winter along with many of his other great mountaineering achievements. Throughout my years trekking and climbing in the Himalayas, I have been extremely lucky, honored and feel very privileged to become friends, climb, trek and work with the incredible Sherpas from the Rolwaling valley, Dolakha. They are some of the friendliest, most humble and welcoming group of people I have ever met. I have learnt so much from the super strong and skilled Sherpas in this region. They have broken so many climbing records, many are IFMGA Guides and Rolwaling is one of the most beautiful and peaceful valleys of the Himalayas. Congratulations to all the Sherpas and Nepalese people for their amazing achievements over the last few weeks, months and years.
We are looking forward to many more great adventures with you in Nepal and other mountains around the world.

High Above the Clouds! One of the more challenging days on the Umbwe, Lemoshe and Machame routes on Kilimanjaro which all meet at Baranco camp. We leave Baranco camp (3,970 m / 13,024 ft) and make the steep scramble over the Baranco wall. While tackling this section, there is a kissing rock, (bit different to kissing the Blarney stone in Co. Cork Ireland). Once past this section the terrain flattens out and you navigate your way through some boulder fields. You begin to realise how high you are with amazing views of Kilimanjaro and Mt Meru in the distance while you make your way Karanga Camp (4,050 m / 13,287 ft) for a beautiful sunset.

Big congratulations to Dawa Yangzum Sherpa bahini, climber & IFMGA guide from Rolwaling valley, who has made history by becoming the first Nepali woman to successfully climb all 14 peaks above 8,000m. On the 9th of October, she completed this amazing achievement by summiting Mt. Shishapangma in Tibet. I first met Dawa while climbing Everest in 2012, which was her first 8,000m peak. Since then, she has achieved many great feats, including being one of three Nepali women who climbed Mt K2 (8,611m) under the Women for Change Expedition in 2014 along with being the youngest woman to climb K2. She is also the first Nepali woman to climb Annapurna I without supplemental oxygen and the first Asian woman to become IFMGA guide. I am delighted to hear of your success and wishing you all the best for your future projects and climbing career.

Jambo! The landscape changes dramatically while trekking from Umbwe Cave camp (2,900 m / 9,514 ft) towards Barranco camp (3,970 m / 13,024 ft). The first few hours you are in beautiful forest with some wildlife, while the trees and plants protect you from the strong sun. As you gain altitude, there is much less vegetation, and you are in more of a desert like landscape. but are rewarded with incredible views of Kilimanjaro and some great picnic spots.

l would like to send a big congratulations to my good friend, Sirbaz Khan! I am delighted for you to become the first Pakastani climber to climb all fourteen 8,000m peaks. An amazing and inspirational achievement. WOW!

I had to pleasure and honour to meet and climb alongside with Shirbaz on Manaslu Expedition in 2022. Manaslu conditions that year were not very favourable and we turned around from camp 4. I was amazed at Shirbazs strength, determination, and humility. While climbing to camp 4 on Manaslu without oxygen, I could not believe how fast he was while we climbed in bad weather on one of the harder sections of the climb.

The last of his fourteen peaks was Shishapangma, which he made the summit on 4th October. He has climbed twelve 8,000m peaks without oxygen.

I look forward to visiting and climbing with you in Pakistan soon. Safe travels back home and enjoy the celebrations.

We are very sad to hear the news of the floods in Nepal. Hoping all our Sherpa family and Nepalese friends are safe and that the rain stops and floods recede. Wishing for better conditions and weather for the rest of the season and future years. Furtemba Sherpa (IFMGA Guide and World Sherpas director) standing on the summit of Island peak. (6,189 m / 20,305 ft in the Khumbu valley. All though classified as a trekking peak, there is a mix of ice and rock scrambling along with climbing and abseiling on fixed line up a 60-70 degree slope before you reach the summit ridge. You do not have to have any mountaineering experience to climb this mountain but need to be strong physically and mentally and of course be a with a good team. Our team will do a half day rope skills and basic mountaineering training with you in our base camp the day before the summit push to get your ready for the climb ahead. Join Furtemba Sherpa and the World Sherpas team November 2024 or in 2025 and climb Island peak. For more information click on link below or get in touch today.
