Ama Dablam Expedition

Ama Dablam under the first snows of winter.

This coming weekend I fly out to Kathmandu to lead an expedition to Ama Dablam (6812m), one of the worlds most beautiful mountains. This is a trip for Adventure Peaks and regular updates on our progress will be posted on their website. Summitpost has some great photos of the mountain here.

The following video from Philippe Gatta shows a pre-monsoon ascent from earlier this year and gives a good illustration of the climb.
