Short History of Mera Peak

Col. Jimmy Roberts and Sen Tenzing first submitted Mera Peak on May 20, 1953. Mera Peak is the highest trekking peak in Nepal. The climbing history of this wonderful peak is closely related to the big names of early Himalayan explorers, including Sir Edmund Hillary, Eric Shipton, and George Lowe. These experts teamed up and led a British Expedition that explored the Mera Peak area in the early 1950s.

Do I need to have previous climbing experience for Mera Peak?

Mera Peak expedition is slightly strenuous that involves trekking as well as climbing with all the expedition equipment. Previous climbing experience unquestionably helps, but it is not that compulsory for Mera Peak Climbing.

Moreover, at Mera Peak Base Camp, our climbing Sherpa will arrange a special session on climbing skills and the use of climbing equipment. Some cardio and general walks will certainly help prior to your start of the expedition. However, anyone with pre-medical history needs to seek medical acquiescence before considering the expedition.

Should I have travel insurance for an emergency to be ready for Mera Peak Climbing?

We suggest that you have a comprehensive travel insurance policy that covers all aspects of your adventure. However, we assure you that there will be hardly any evacuations or any health catastrophes throughout the expedition. Your leader is medically trained and has ample knowledge to deal with any type of life-threatening situation. Nevertheless, it is always helpful to have insurance as your backup.

What is Acute Mountain Sickness (AMS)? How can it be treated?

Acute mountain sickness is a severe health effect of high altitude caused by your body’s reaction to a shortage of oxygen. The amount of oxygen available at sea level is double that contained at 5000m above the sea level. Your body needs enough time to adjust your breathing to a higher altitude. You normally experience the effect of the high altitude above 2800 meters.

To prevent AMS, you should acclimatize your body when trekking to higher altitudes. Moreover, you should drink enough fluids and take rest immediately when you feel tired and dizzy.

What are the symptoms of AMS?

The major symptoms of AMS include headache, nausea, loss of appetite, cough, and fatigue. If you feel any of the symptoms, take rest, and halt your adventure for that day. If your health is getting worse even while resting, return to a lower altitude. You should take proper rest until you feel okay. You can always abandon your expedition if you are not feeling well to complete it. Let your guides know if you are having issues during the expedition and act on their advice.

Communication is made possible through satellite phones, so a guide will help you if something critical happens. If you are not well to continue your summit, a helicopter will come to your rescue.
