- Climb Island Peak 6189m Nepal filmed on my GoPro.
After reaching the bottom of the steep face, you connect to the fixed ropes which go all the way to the summit. The climb is steep, with constant short rests before it levels off and reach the summit at 6189m.
At the summit, you connect for safety and start taking your summit photos.
Great footage, i will be there soon!
It is a beautiful short climb
How did it go?
Osiągnięcia super; wspinaczka jest nie dla każdego. Poręczówki pomagają przy podejściu na szczyt i nie tylko. Wyglądacie pieknie na tym zboczu. Dajecie z siebie wszystko aby osiągnąć swój cel. Pozdrawiam was.🇵🇱🇵🇱🇵🇱.
Thank you 🙏
Wow....wonderful
Great footage, thank you. I'm planning on ascending Mera Peak and would love to climb Island Peak but my fear of heights just says NO. I keep coming back to RUclips just to check and you've put me in my place again.
Yes Mera Peak is fairly gentle incline, although there might be one steep short section near the summit (changes each year). Island Peak and Lobuche East have steep 45/50 degree slopes. I also climbed Chulu Far East years ago which has no steep sections
good job
Loving the video! Wanted to ask, how did guys avoid frostbite? I saw there were multiple instances some of the climbers fingers were exposed to the cold air/wind?
I wore double boots and warm mitts.
It's not climbing , you have just to follow the ropes in place ...Would you be able to rich the summit without them ?
Not me, but my guide could
Schee viel Schnee 😀
Lhotse is looking huge
Because it is huge
@@MountainsOfTravel and it's also blocking Everest's view

Thank you for your response advance
Yes I recommend double boots - better warm than sorry
@@MountainsOfTravel thank you 🙏🏼
Hey thanks for this! Which GoPro did you use?
Hero 7

My guide has to take lots of things in case I have issues - like extra rope, heavy down jacket etc
@@MountainsOfTravel ok thank you let me know ! Did you travel from Uk maybe ? With one insurance did you use , or Maybe recommend?
No I travelled from Canada. I have insurance thru my job

October
Was this in spring or autumn?
Late October
Hi Matt
Could a novice do it?
Yes if you are fit, don’t get altitude sickness, and do not have a fear of heights / steep terrain
@@MountainsOfTravel what preparation would you suggest to a novice? some companies want you to do these expensive training camps they offer? is that essential or would you be fine if you're strong and fit
@@tom_abbott strong and fit and no fear of heights / falling. You should also do a short 2-3 hour basic snow, glacier, crampons etc course- many companies offer this with the climb
@@tom_abbott No need to do an training camp for this one, you can learn the basic techniques in a couple of hours and that's enough. Best preparation for non technical climbs is loads of cardio, mental training and long uphill hikes with a 10kg backpack
