- The First Light Guiding Ama Dablam Expedition 2017 highs and lows.
Watch us climbing in the pre monsoon season (April through May) as we walk from Jiri to Ama Dablam Base Camp and ascend the Southwest Ridge. Surrounded by magnificent scenery and stunning climbing we enjoyed the mountain in its off-peak finest.

Loved this video. Loved that you were clear headed enough to keep what was important in perspective.
Awesome footage! What a beautiful mountain
Great video..... Glad you guys are safe and back with your family. It takes more courage to accept reality on the day. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks Chandru. And great to see people like you still connecting with the message of the safe and successful journey.
Awesome! Thanks for posting this-- super inspirational work
Yeah. Thats the right thing to do. Go back home safely and see your family. Awesome footage, btw.
It even look like another planet; jagged and rocky wow
Ama Dablam, another wonder of creation...
Excellent video, enthralled from the very start. AMA Dablam looks to be a very serious mountain to climb even though its not a 8k peak. Thanks for taken the time to share. Cheers
Thanks for your kind words.
Excellent video
This is a great video. Loved every second of it and it's true mountaineering. What an experience and with different conditions / luck you would of reached the summit. Nice work.
Thanks Mark. It was a lot of fun to make. As you picked up, it was a lot of fun...very real....and still very rewarding without a summit. Safe climbing
@@firstlightguiding9635 ----- It is as much fun, if not more, to watch sensible climbers admit an abandon, than it is to see video telling of people who perished because they refused to admit any of of a number of good reasons to call it a day. Your abandonment of the summit tells a lot more about the place and the conditions than news of a death.
@@davesmith5656 Thanks for your very kind word Dave. I couldn't agree more. Turning around can seem trivial in hindsight, but it it a critically important decision when made at the right time. No regrets.
Great footage and story, what an expedition! Solid display of good judgement on the mountain too
Thanks. Glad you think so too.
you made the right decision guys, kudos for your courage and perseverance!
Thanks Zhelko. I'm glad you agree....coming home safely is always a good choice.
Great vid, Gav. It conveys to non-mountaineers like me just what is involved in a climb like that. Dangerous, but exhilarating I would imagine.
You won't get me up there but well done you and Damien, best to come home in one piece as Damien said at the end.
I see you used my mockup of your logo at the end. Nice one.
Yes, thanks for the closing logo.
I subscribe your channel after seen this vedio..
Sensible Kiwis! (I think?)
Beautiful video Gavin. The mountain, the people, the whole region, what an amazing place.

We agree!
That serac right above the camp is scary.
Sure is. We camped well away from it.
Hi i am from pakistan i am very fond of mountainring, if i want to come or summit Ama Dablam then what should i do first, and how many money required me from Pakistan to Ama Dablam and then Pakistan pllz complete detail..
So I can't get enough of this in terms of watching people do it. So I don't know shit. But to anyone who sees this and knows, why aren't we seeing The Sherpa more here?
Sherpa's are not compulsory but we did hire 2 cooks, porters to base camp and a liaison officer, most of which is impossible to go without.
Hi I'm Ivan from indonesia it's very good to see your video. getting more information I did from your video. I've a plan to reach ama dablam next year on october and filming it. Did you go to ama dablam indepentent ( without local guide ) ?
Yes I did. Local logistics only. Enjoy, it's a great mountain.
and how about the permit ??? what permits need to climb indepentent to amadablam ?
You can obtain permits from the ministry of tourism. The simplest way to organise a permit is through an agency - this will be a cheaper option - as the agency will combine multiple groups onto the same permit.
Hi Ivan, when will you go Ama Dablam? It's a great mountain. btw I'm Lukik, also from Indonesia. I also plan to go there.
well done! how much did you guys pay for the permit?
Hi Eric. The expedition permit to climb Ama Dablam in the pre monsoon is 400 USD per person.
