Everest FAQs

Here at BBE, we look for experienced climbers for whom Everest is a logical next step. Our team must be in top physical condition, and ready to meet the extreme challenges Everest presents. It is important that your resume includes previous high altitude climbs and solid mountaineering skills. Climbs like Denali, Aconcagua, Cho-Oyu and Vinson are excellent prerequisites for an Everest attempt. 

It is also important that team members are able to work well with others, and are willing to commit to a group effort lasting several weeks. A positive attitude is proven to increase  summit success, and of course, makes for a more enjoyable climb. 

You will be exposed to a completely different culture during the expedition, and it is your responsibility to treat the people  you meet and their environment with respect. We want you to make new Nepali friends, help in the kitchen, and make our  camp even more fun. This eagerness and willingness is as important as your climbing skills. 

Physical Conditioning for Everest?

In the interests of safety, success, and team compatibility, climbers must be in excellent physical condition. Prior experience  carrying a heavy pack for multiple days is required, and climbers must be able to carry an average of 30lbs or more and be  physically and mentally prepared to deal with strenuous situations at high altitudes. Get in touch with us; we’re excited to  assist in developing a training program that helps you meet your goals.  

Why not make the best investment you can?

“I have been climbing big mountains for 20+ years. Having been on multiple Himalayan expeditions, I will never consider another guide or outfitter other than BBE moving forward. They lead the pack from a logistics, infrastructure, food quality, personal attention, and safety perspective by a WIDE margin.

—James Walkley

Everest Expedition

Willie and Damian set the bar as high as the mountains they climb!

“In my experience, few provide a more complete, safe and rewarding expedition experience than the Benegas Brothers. When it comes to expedition judgement, safety and climbing ethics, Willie and Damian set the bar as high as the mountains they climb. My son Matt and I have 100% trust and confidence in Willie and Damian.
