Cho Oyu is the sixth highest peak in the world (8,201m) and it is located on the Tibet-Nepal border. It was first summited in 1954 by an Australian and Tibetan Expedition. Cho Oyu is technically easier than most other eight thousand meter peaks. We will climb Cho Oyu via the West Face. Advanced Base Camp will be established at 5,800m, Camp 1 at 6,500m, Camp 2 at 7,100m and Camp 3 at 7,400m.
Mountain Safety:
Mountain safety is our top priority at climb High. We will maintain a continual communication with base camp through radios. Climb High will also provide you with Gamo bag (Portable Altitude Chamber bag) and oxygen in case of any emergency (for medical purpose only). Our Cho Oyu Expedition is supported by strong and experienced Sherpa’s who have been on Cho Oyu several times. Our Experienced guide and Sherpa’s will stock camps, fix ropes and provide support for the climb. This enables you to carry lighter weight and save your strength when you go for the summit bid. Climb High’s support, equipment and services are high quality in order to give you an outstanding chance to summit.
Our Objectives:
Our main objective is to help you summit Cho Oyu safely and at the same time enjoy it also. In order to achieve our goal, we will ensure that you are properly prepared for the summit bid. On your request Climb High also runs a variety of mountaineering courses as a Cho Oyu training program.
It is also important to acclimatize properly to avoid altitude problems and to keep yourself healthy and fit. Climb High will make sure that you are properly acclimatized before you reach the base camp. We will start our acclimatization process to our highest acclimatization camp which is Camp 3 at 7,400m and from here we will make our attempt to summit Cho Oyu.
Food:
Our food for the mountain is well prepared by our specially trained cooks in order to give you the best balanced diet of fruit, green vegetables and lot’s of carbohydrates and proteins. Our cooks have undergone cooking trainings and can prepare you any food even at such high altitudes. We also make sure that they are prepared hygienically as we don’t want any one of our clients to feel sick. In addition there will be plenty of hot drinks, soups, tea and biscuits to eat.
