Our team includes only highly trained and experienced crew members to ensure that climbers have a safe and comfortable journey.
Our crew members carry essential equipment such as mess tents, stretchers, oxygen, and fresh food for multiple days. We hire more crew members than budget operators to avoid overloading our porters and to provide employment opportunities for the local community.
In addition to the convenience of having your camp carried, our team of staff fosters a strong sense of camaraderie and support, which can provide a great source of comfort as you make your way to the summit.
The number of crew members required for each route varies depending on the options you choose.. Most trips require an estimated number of crew members, which may fluctuate slightly based on the amount of equipment carried:
VIP Option: 1 guide, 1 assistant guide, 1 cook, 1 waiter, and 10-12 porters
