Tibet, Everest and Cho Oyu, 21,400' International Mountain Guides was one of the very first companies to run a commercial trek to Everest ABC in Tibet (1991) and has conducted this program successfully many times since then. IMG's experience from running this program, along with several dozen climbing expeditions to Cho Oyu, Everest, and Shishapangma makes us one of the very most experienced outfitters for taking customers to high altitude in Tibet. IMG's programs in Tibet are recognized worldwide as simply outstanding, with a reputation for our highly professional staff of leaders, climbers and Sherpas, first-rate logistics and our resulting safety and success record on the mountain. For 2011 IMG will again run the Tibet ABC trek, this time under the under the leadership of photographer, Adam Angel. This will be Adam's 3rd visit to this side of the Mountain, and it is one of his favorite places. This is the most physically challenging non-technical program that IMG offers. It is more strenuous than Kilimanjaro, Rainier, or Everest Base Camp (Nepal Side). Tibet ABC is arguably the highest point on earth that can be attained without mountaineering skills. To successfully reach this point requires some serious acclimatization. You will spend over two weeks in excess of 14,000 feet. It is important to be in good physical condition. This trip is "do-able" if you are in good shape, enjoy hiking and traveling, and don’t have any underlying health issues that might be worsened by the amount of time spent up high. |
