 Everest 8848m. Expedition begins you well coming from Kathmandu where you meet the staff of Adventure Silk Road Inc., in the airport and Transfer you to Hotel. Next day, is the start of the introduction of Expedition crews and the joining of the team members. Since then we make your Tibet visa and other necessary document for the Everest Expedition. 3 day after we drive you up the Friendship Bridge through Arnico Highway Nepal-Tibet border; where the Chinese liaison officer and Chinese transport meet us there. The expedition gears go by truck while we travel by Land cruiser 4wd. We take time to acclimatize with one night at Zhangmu (2300m) and two nights at Nylam (3750m), which also gives us the chance to trek up high hills for acclimatization. Next day we drive to Tingri (4350m) where we spend a further two nights acclimatizing. From here we leave the main rough road with jerking & bouncing grassy plain leading up Everest BC. We set up base camp at a place called Chinese Base Camp and stay two nights or more, depending on how everyone feels and we make schedules of the yaks. Base camp is a temporary but comfortable affair with Nepali cook and dining tent. Now the walking begins with the two-day walk to advanced base camp (ABC). We drive Tingri to Base camp 5400m, from their after waking 2 days we reach to ABC 6400m along with the Yaks. From ABC the route goes to the east Rongbuk glacier and after that there is a easy snow slopes to the North Col at 7000m. where camp one is situated on snow. After that there is a long reasonably angled snow slopes to climb 7400m. where we should put camp 2 on snow. The route from Camp 2 to camp 3 is the series of the rocks which is little bit difficult; but again there is a very easy terrain to walk ahead to set up the camp 3. This camp 3 is at the height of 7900m. on the rock. Camp 3. The route traverses through again a series of rocky climbs; and then there is a median angled snow slopes to climb; and then again we have to climb on mixed rocks and snow until we reach camp 4 at 8400m.high. This camp for is on the rock but some times ago it was snow covered. To reach there we have to fixed the ropes on the climb but there are safety lines which is provides you when you are tired and windy is blowing. This route is mostly very windy Specially between camp 2 to camp 3. Camp 4. 8400m. Camp 4 is the last camp of the Everest summit from North East ridge. Now route is mixed rocks and snow steps. This step is quite steep in many places so you require very considerable care for your self. For your clothing and your oxygen equipments. After that the North East Ridge is quite wide with small steps with little bit height again until we go for the first steps ahead where we should fix rope to reach there. Above there the climbing is little bit exposed but it is easy again to reach ahead in the second steps. After the second steps the route is series of small nude ridge these are some times covered with snow. After that route with large boulder then we should use the ladder to climb a head. Again after that section of the route should be fixed with rope. Above this steps route is relatively easy with gentle ground until we reach at the third steps. Now to go head it is not series as the previous steps but we should use the fixed rope to the Col before the final summit of snow slopes. Again there are quite steep and fixed ropes to go ahead to the buttressed rocks from where there is a short section of corniced ridge to reach on the Summit of Everest.
