Muztagh Ata attracts skiers and mountaineers for its elevation, climbing season and “non technical” nature. At 7500+ meters, it’s a great preparation mountain for  future 8000 meter ascents, and in the Northern hemisphere summer which works for many getting holiday leave for a climb. Additionally, it’s a very interesting approach with camels (!). All camps on mountain will be stocked and pitched in advance, with the route fixed in places deemed necessary.

Expedition Plan in Brief

Our base camp at Muztagh Ata 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.

An exciting objective

Muztagh Ata is a 7500+ meter peak in the Pamir range on the northern edge of the Tibetan plateau.
