Ama Dablam (Austin Shannon)
Ama Dablam means Mother’s Charm Box. “Ama” (mother) refers to the mountain’s long ridges stretching over the valleys below like protective arms. “Dablam” is for the distinct hanging glacier on the southwest face. which looks like the traditional deity pendants worn by Sherpa women.
We enjoyed another successful season on Ama Dablam last year and are looking forward to doing it again. Are you ready to test yourself on this great challenge of the Himalaya? If so, email everest@mountainguides.com!
