Route to Camp II on Mount Everest Completed for This Spring Season

The route up to the Khumbu Icefall and Camp II for this spring’s Mount Everest expedition has been completed.

According to Aarti Neupane, Director at the Department of Tourism, a team of Icefall Doctors deployed by the Sagarmatha Pollution Control Committee (SPCC) has finished fixing a 2,200-meter route from Everest Base Camp to Camp II.

Each year, the SPCC undertakes the task of fixing ropes from the base camp up to Camp II, located at an altitude of 6,400 meters. This involves installing ropes, setting up ladders in hazardous areas, and stabilizing unstable snow and ice structures. Above Camp II, the rope-fixing responsibility is awarded through a tender process by the Expedition Operators’ Association, and this year the task has been undertaken by 8K Expeditions.

Due to the constantly shifting landscape, the route up to Camp II gets lost every year, making it a challenging section to rebuild. Icefall Doctors mention that fixing ropes above Camp II is comparatively easier.

According to the Department of Tourism, a total of 134 climbers have received permits for Mount Everest so far this season—27 of them are women and 107 are men.

Mountaineering Activity Resumes at Everest Base Camp as New Season Commences.
With the arrival of the new climbing season, activity is picking up at Everest Base Camp.

According to the Department of Tourism, preparations are well underway as expedition teams begin setting up their camps. Icefall doctors have already started fixing ropes along the route, with 600 meters of rope secured so far, confirmed department director Aarti Neupane.

Currently, temperatures in the Everest region are dipping as low as -14°C. The latest report from the department also warns of strong winds throughout the day and night, adding another layer of difficulty for climbers.

Spring remains the peak season for Everest expeditions, bringing in the highest revenue in climbing royalties for the government. The department is now preparing to issue permits for the upcoming climbs.
