Күн бұрынWe hope you enjoy our Mera Peak climb documentary. If this short film inspires you to want to climb Mera Peak click here: trekclimbskinep...
The success of this Mera Peak climb (and our doco) was only made possible due to the valuable contribution of many people. We sincerely thank you all - John Carruthers, Tika Bahadur Tamang, Gyan Tamang, Sonam Tamang, Santa Magar, Siddhi Tamang, Lakpa Sherpa, Buddha Tamang, Mark Stennett, Benny Curnow, Dean Wylie, Chrystle Elise Wellburn, James Worth, Alan McLean, Gordon Fisher, Peter Gauvin, Sean Connolly, Ray Foster, Caroline Bentley, Elisabeth Andrew, Alex Whitehouse and Nick Farr.
Watch this and you'll learn plenty about Trek Climb Ski Nepal, our exceptional Sherpa team and the reason our expeditions succeed when plenty don't. Not to mention the unwavering determination and never give-up attitude of the Aussie climbers that climbed Mera Peak with Trek Climb Ski Nepal in October 2013 - one of the toughest seasons on record.

Just found your video. Very nice work!! Great job all. I was at Mera 3 weeks after you guys left. Much less snow on the trail but much colder and a lot more wind! Didn't make it to the top due to wind and cold!

What an amazing trip! And editing of the footage. Trips like these would make you friends for life. Do most peoples attitudes change in the way back down, as in excitement and starting to think the trip is almost over? Or do you find a tea house? Have a few beers and reminisce about what has just happened. Thanks
@nickfarr7168 Жыл бұрын
Thanks for your message. Yes, adventures like this definitely change you. For many though it can take a few months after getting home for the experience and what has just been achieved to really resonate. But celebratory beers are a must when you get back to Lukla - especially in recognition of the incredible efforts by your porter and sherpa guide team who are the reason these trips are successful.

what route did you take? there are a few shots of you guys at Namche.... i thought that you needed to go the opposite direction from Lukla than the trek to Everest. I'm planning this trek for later next year having been to EBC a few years back and a few summits in the Alps this year.
@TrekclimbskiAu 10 жыл бұрын
G'day mate, yeah well spotted. We usually head up to Namche for a couple of nights to get a solid acclimatisation going. Makes it possible to come back through Lukla and go straight over the Zawtra La safely in one day (after a night at Chutanga).

Good effort but am I right in thinking that, like most people, you climbed Mera Central rather than the true summit, Mera North?
@TrekclimbskiAu 7 жыл бұрын
Yes Lindsay, on this occasion we climbed Mera Central not Mera North. And you are right, for our group of clients attempting their first 6000m peak it was a great effort!
@thanhn3048 6 жыл бұрын
The mountain has three peaks: southern, central, and northern. The two higher peaks were climbed earlier but the central peak is the hardest. (which is the one they climb in the documentary.)

Did you guys use Diamox?
@TrekclimbskiAu 6 жыл бұрын
Most do use it Sam. It does help significantly with your acclimatisation. And yes, most of the crew of this trip were taking it.
@straintheory6598 6 жыл бұрын
I didn't use it on Kilimanjaro a couple of weeks ago and after getting dehydrated 150m from the top I got really sick and had to go down. Everyone else who used it breezed it
@TrekclimbskiAu 6 жыл бұрын
We see that a lot of Kili trips ascend pretty quick. We take at least 8 - 9 days to get to the 5000m mark and then proceed higher from there. We don't use Kili as an accurate guide for the likelihood of being able to acclimatise properly in Nepal. Diamox definitely helps, but it's no substitute for a safe rate of ascent with the right food and hydration.
@straintheory6598 6 жыл бұрын
I did the 7 day Lemosho route and was absolutely fine until I ran out of water at about 5,500m and then by 5,700 I was starting to get really sick. I was bit dehydrated from sleeping during the day before summit night and not hydrating properly before we set off. A lesson learned!
