"I summitted Ama Dablam with Tim in 2003. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend him or an expedition of his. He works with rigour, vigour and extremely good humour. Trip felt in control at all times in terms of both climbing and general organisation.
5 stars.
Have a good time on the trip!" - R.Bull

"Tim, I'd like to thank you for an awesome holiday / experience in Nepal. All the organisation was much appreciated and the good humour with which you ran the trip. The mountain was of course amazing too and it will be a month to remember for along time to come. Again thanks" - Rik

 

Climb Ama Dablam 2009
4 week climbing itinerary
(From only £2500 Ex Kathmandu)

The 7th Ama Dablam Expedition Professionally Led
& Organised by Everest Summiteer Tim Mosedale

In 2007 we put 9 members and 3 Climbing Sherpas on the summit and in 2008
we put 7 members and 2 Climbing Sherpas on the summit. We have excellent
ratios which means for excellent success rates. In 2009 it could be you!

Please check out the feedback from previous expedition members.

If you are concerned about safety then please also refer to notes about The Dablam

Ama Dablam is, without a doubt, one of the most stunning mountains in the world. The maps report Ama Dablam as being anything from 6812m to 6856m - but one thing for sure is that it is over 22,000 feet.

It commands the Everest region and is by far and away the most impressive peak along the Khumbu trail. People who trek in the region will always come away with a few mountain names added to their vocabulary, and Ama Dablam will be one of them.

This trip not only takes in the sights and sounds of Kathmandu, but also the historic trading post of Namche Bazaar and the world famous monastery at Tengboche. What better way to acclimatise and get ourselves ready for the mountain of a lifetime?

This climbing itinerary is based on a 4 week Saturday to Sunday period.

31 Oct - Depart UK.
1 Nov - Arrive Kathmandu (KTM).
2 Nov - Sightseeing in KTM. Sort gear / final preparations for the expedition.
3 Nov - Fly to Lukla (2800m) and start trekking.
4 Nov - 24 Nov - Trek to Ama Dablam Base Camp. Rest. Train. Climb. Party.
27 Nov - Fly to KTM. Sort gear. Sightseeing. Party again.
28 Nov - Sightseeing and last minute shopping in the morning. Depart KTM.
29 Nov - Arrive home.
