Ama Dablam

This is the ultimate climb you are looking for! Climbers must be familiar with using technical gear and be in excellent shape. 

Ama Dablam is located in the Everest area and is one of the most prestigious peaks in the world. It is the "mountaineer's dream" because it has it all- vertical rock, ice, glaciers, crevasses, large snow fields, 3 camps, ice walls, and high altitude. This is a perfect peak for those looking to see if they are ready for an 8000M peak or looking for that "ultimate climb".
