Climbers have to ascend past the infamous Dablam on the South Face in order to ascend to the summit. Ama Dablam clients have the support of Satori Adventures best climbing sherpa, Kitchen staff, group leader and porters as they attempt this difficult ascent. The managing director of Satori Adventures Rishi Bhandari has been tirelessly handling all of the groups logistics as they arrange all of the critical details of the unfolding expedition.
The weather is expected to be clear this week in the Khumbu Valley with only a few days of scattered rain storms. This should not affect the team that much.
