༄ Api Himal is located in Far Western Nepal. The peak itself is 7000 meters in height, and surrounded by 5000 and 6000 meter peaks. The goal of this trip is to walk into the region with porter support, focusing on the culture and wildlife of the region. We will stop and visit with locals in their villages, search for wildlife with my binoculars while on trail, and make our way up into the large alpine region that is Api Himal.
Once in, we will begin looking for alpine mountaineering objectives that we can climb in a days time from base camp. We are looking to make new snow and rock climbs in the region at the 5000-6000 meter elevation. First ascent climbing takes time and we will take ours to get acclimatized properly (day hikes from base camp), choose the right objectives for the group, and also make sure we explore enough to find the most aesthetic ascents we can. We will also explore the Jethi massif downvalley for climbs. Join us for exploring in wild western Nepal.
COST EFFECTIVE. FULL SERVICE.
We will climb with yaks and porter support to base camp.
