Thirteen members of The Mountain Company's expedition to Mera Peak summitted on November 15th, we were very lucky to have clear weather with good views from the top of five 8,000m peaks of Kanchenjunga, Makalu, Lhotse, Everest and Cho Oyu. Congratulations and well done to everyone!

This is my fifth time that I have summitted Mera Peak while leading groups for The Mountain Company, each year I have been very lucky to work with the same team of Sherpas. I would like thank our sirdar Pemba Tamang (double Everest summitter plus Manaslu and Shishapangma) and his brother Nurbu Tamang as well as climbing Sherpas Ngima Dorje Tamang and Rana Magar.

To read more about our November 2010 expedition to climb Mera Peak please see our Trip Report on The Mountain Company's Blog

The Mountain Company is organising three expeditions to climb Mera Peak in 2011, the first trip is in April, second in October and third in November. Please get in touch if you are interested in joining one of these expeditions to climb Mera Peak.
