Setting out to use Mount Everest as a workplace is not for the faint hearted. Although the aim is to achieve the scientific goals, the safety of the team members is paramount.

To provide the logistical back up and support we have teamed with Jagged Globe. Their years of experience guiding on Everest and other Himalayan peaks comes with a reputation for safety and skill. Jagged Globe has also provided support on the rehearsal expedition to Cho Oyu in Autumn 2006. This will build the relationship with the same key staff for the main expedition in Spring 2007.
