  • A Note from Russell Brice, Expedition Leader

    Here is a short note as we start our 13th expedition to Everest, 12 of which have been on the North side. I welcome the 8 clients, 2 guides and 8 Sherpas who will all play an important part in the expedition over the next 2 months.

    North Col
    After the success of climbs to the North Col in 2001 & 2002, Himalayan Experience is providing for four North Col teams this year.

    Logisitics
    In order to support this large number of people it is necessary to bring almost 11,000kg of freight. There is 4,200kg of food, 5,000kg of equipment, 450kg of rope, and another 1,300kg of personal equipment. There will be approximately 100 yak loads to ABC, a two day journey. So, I welcome you all to read about our 13th Everest expedition, with 6 nationalities, 8 Sherpas, 7 Everest summits between the staff, and with 9,000kg of equipment. I hope that our story is a successful and safe one.

    Russell Brice,
    Himalayan Experience Managing Director
