They can be up to almost 7,000 meters tall.

Peaks like Mara Peak, Island Peak, Loboshe, Chulu East, Pasang Peak.

The thing that makes them trekking peaks is the permit cost and the fact that you don't need any government logistics with you.

All these bigger peaks, you need liaison officers and all this infrastructure and the permits of thousands and thousands of dollars.

Rainy season? Climbing in rainy season is possible.

It's like you could do Merah Peak, Island Peak.

We actually have a Merah Peak that's happening pretty soon.

We had a couple of Island Peaks that happened a couple of days ago.

Because after you cross the 3,000 to 4,000 metres barrier, Usually what happens is a snowfall.

Do you understand?

It's a bit more remote, but let's go to Merah Peak.

If we can climb up and then kind of go over it, and then we're going to take a high-altitude pass, which basically pops us out near Island Peak, which is...

in the Khumbu.

But the high altitude pass, it's an anti-lapsha pass.

you.

100%.

I had a head torch break on Island Peak.

and it was one of the scariest things in my life.

in Nepal.

So you'd a team going for Island Peak, um, which is another mountain over there.

You had a team going for Amidablam, which is a really difficult 6,800 meter peak over there.

And then you'd a family who were coming to base camp.

Okay.

And then next spring, I go to Himalayas, the Everest region, and I am supposed to climb Mira Peak, Island Peak, and Lubuche East.

So that would actually give me five if I achieve all, but I wanted to have like an extra in case there's any weather issue or I don't achieve the summit.

Okay.
