We’ve chosen Manaslu for one of our 2023 8000 meter climbs due to Nepal’s consistency in permit availability (compared to Cho Oyu), ease of access (Gasherbrum Two contains some truly painful red tape to obtain a visa and even enter Pakistan), and good summit success rates (~60%).

LEADERSHIP

Luke Smithwick will be leading this trip, and also climbing with you on the mountain. Additionally, one Nepali Sherpa will be present for every 3 climbers on the peak. All camps on mountain will be stocked and pitched in advance, with the route fixed in places deemed necessary by the Sherpa climbing team and Luke.

COST EFFECTIVE. FULL SERVICE

Our base buy ambien in uk camp at Manaslu BC/ABC will be fully stocked with a variety of meals for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, along with snacks. We will have hot showers in camp, two pit toilets, and each member will have their own roomy 2 person Mountain Hardwear tent. The purpose of a base camp is for you to have a place to recover, and relax, and have space from the mountain to collect your thoughts, gather your energy reserves, and move to climbing on the mountain. We will make two rotations on the mountain before making our summit bid. A rotation entails climbing on the peak, spending nights in established and stocked camps, and then returning to our base camp for a hot shower, fresh meals, and relaxing. Our goal as a guide service is to provide a climb that keeps you strong, physically healthy, and mentally prepared for your summit.

PROVING GROUND

Manaslu is an excellent segue way into Everest and other higher 8000 meter peaks. Come and challenge yourself on a Himalayan giant.

TRUST

Climbing at 8000 meters is no place to be short on resources. We make the proper advance preparations to ensure that our team will be properly cared for, from airport to summit to airport.
