Itinerary of South Col
Everest Expedition 8848m. in detail |
Camp 1: 20000ft.
(6,400m) :
This camp 1 is situated at the flat area of snow
endless snow deep crevasses and mountain walls.
Because of the Sun's reflection from this place we
get warm and hitting ambience at this place. In the
night we listen the deep murmuring cracking sounds
of crevasses beneath our tent. These are the areas
where we have to walk to reach camp 2. |
Camp 2. 21000ft.
(6,750m) :
This camp 2 is situated at the height of the
21000ft, which is located at the foot of the icy
mount Lhotse wall though where we have to go ahead.
Whether is here is good but bad clouds roll in from
the low range of the Himalayan valleys to the bottom
of our camp two. But wind here some times seems very
violent enough to destroy our tents. After climbing
these palaces we reach camp 3. |
Camp 3. 22300ft.
(7,100m) :
Camp 3 is located at the height of 22300ft,
adjoining to mount Lhotse wall. After climbing the
4000ft. Lhotse wall by using fixed rope and with
prior acclimatization it leads us to camp 4. Also on
the way we have to ascend the steep allow bands
(lose, down -slopping and rotten limestone). From
their crossing short snowfield the route moves ahead
up the Geneva Spur to the east before finishing the
flats of the south col. (Another wells name meaning
Saddle of pass). Oxygen should probably be use above
base camp 3 incase of needed to the climbers. |
Camp 4. 26000ft.
(8,400m) :
Now are on at camp 4 which located height of
26000ft; it is the last camp of the Expedition. From
here summit is about 500m, distance far. This is the
final and dangerous part of the climbing. This place
is besieged by ferocious and violent winds. The
normal best way to reach to summit is via the narrow
South - East Ridge and it precedes the South Summits

From here the way is easy to reach
at the summit of the Everest 29028ft; and Sir Edmond
