      During any mountain expedition, itโ€™s crucial to account for unexpected circumstances such as inclement weather, rugged terrain, or other unforeseen events. To ensure the safety and success of the Mera Peak climb, a contingency day is built into the itinerary.


      The contingency day serves as a buffer, allowing for flexibility in the schedule. Suppose unfavorable weather conditions or other factors make it impossible or unsafe to proceed with the ascent on the initially planned day. In that case, the contingency day can adjust the schedule accordingly.


      This extra day allows the team to assess the situation, evaluate the weather conditions, and decide on the next course of action. It ensures enough time and flexibility to tackle unexpected challenges during the expedition.

      Ascending towards the summit of Mera Peak, the climbers put on their crampons again. They climb back up to the pass at Mera La and continue their ascent up the glacier. The route leads them towards a rocky outcrop where they establish their high camp.


      This high camp is on the mountainโ€™s edge, providing awe-inspiring and panoramic views of the Himalayan peaks.

      Day 13: Ascent Of Mera Peak

      The summit day of Mera Peak begins early, with the climbers being awakened around 2 am or possibly even earlier, depending on the group size. They are provided hot tea and a high-energy meal to fuel their ascent. The journey towards the summit of Mera Peak starts by ascending the main glacier, with a crossing to the south side as they approach a snow hump-back ridge. This section of the route does not require technical climbing skills, but the 30-degree slopes still present a challenge.


      As the climbers continue, the slope gradually steepens behind the ridge before swinging diagonally westward. At this point, the summit comes back into view, and they find themselves on the level summit ridge. Before reaching the final steep ascent, the climbers will attach themselves to a fixed rope laid by their guide. With the assistance of an ice axe and a jumar (a mechanical ascender), they navigate the final 30-meter, 55-degree pitch that leads to the summit of Mera Peak.


      Upon reaching the summit, a breathtaking panorama awaits, providing clear views of Everest and the surrounding mountain ranges. It is a moment of immense accomplishment and awe as the climbers take in the beauty and magnitude of their surroundings. After savoring the experience and congratulating themselves, they begin their descent back to Khare, where a celebration awaits to commemorate their successful summit of Mera Peak.


      The summit day is both physically and mentally demanding, requiring determination, endurance, and the proper use of mountaineering equipment. It is a significant achievement for those undertaking the Mera Peak climb, and the rewards are remarkable.

      After the successful summit of Mera Peak, the journey begins as the climbers make their way back down the Hinku Valley towards Khote. This day mainly involves descending, but the terrain presents challenges, particularly as they walk on a rocky moraine.


      The climbers must watch their steps as they descend and exercise caution to avoid twisted ankles or other potential injuries. The rocky terrain requires attentiveness and careful foot placement to maintain stability and ensure a safe descent.


      While the physical demands may be reduced compared to the ascent, maintaining focus and taking necessary precautions is still crucial. The climbers should follow the guidance of their experienced guides to navigate the terrain safely and reach Khote without any incidents.

This new route offers quicker progress and provides fantastic views back to Mera Peak, allowing climbers to reminisce about their successful summit.
