Food is as important for the success of a high-altitude mountaineering expedition as is having the right gear. On this expedition, you can expect to sample the full spectrum of mountaineering cuisine: everything from fresh, tasty meals at basecamp to fortified soups and “just add water” meals up high.
The expedition includes breakfasts, lunches, and dinners at basecamp as well nutritious mountaineering food for energy-dense breakfasts and dinners above basecamp. Your guides also provide various snack & light lunch options on rest days up high. You should bring a minimum of 2,500 calories of your own favorite climbing & outdoor snacks (ie., energy bars, trail mix, chocolate, pretzels, jerky) to optimize your calorie intake.
Many dietary requirements (vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and celiac, dairy-free) can be accommodated on the mountain as long as you notify us in time. If you have a particularly complicated diet, please contact us to discuss details.
