MT. CHO-OYU EXPEDITION (8,201 m.)

Cho-Oyu, the world's sixth highest mountain offers one of the exciting high altitude adventures. In the last few years, Cho Oyu, has become the most frequently climbed of the 8,000m peaks. The comparative ease of access, lack of objective dangers and generally straightforward terrain makes it the most attainable of the world's highest mountains. Even so, it is still an enormous undertaking. Before the climb, we spend several days Acclimatizing near Nyalam on the edge of the Tibetan plateau. This has worked well in the past and proved to be an enjoyable start to the expedition.
