Ok,
I have a once in a lifetime trip planned for next autumn to the Himalaya and am after some advice from those who what "been there done that".
I have climbed in Scotland (to winter Grade III) and also done a bit in the Alps around the Mt Blanc Massif (PD+ grades).
Mera peak for me has little technical climbing so Im not overly interested, Lapka Ri, although high, doesnt float my boat due to the location, and Ama Dablam is a bit too much for my skills at this stage.
Therefore, island looks to be about right. Good altitude, PD+ grade (or thereabouts), stunning scenery, etc.
I am going with a very well respected British climber (Everest summiter) so happy with choice of leader, but dont want to walk away from the 'trip of a lifetime' dissapointed that I could have done more.
Thoughts?
