British Asajya Tuppa Expedition 2025

This team reached base camp, with difficulty, over 13 days from Simikot. Shortly thereafter they experienced four days of heavy snow, with one metre falling at base camp and more above. While they were able to identify a likely gully leading to the ridge east of Asajya Tuppa's summit, the fresh snow failed to sublimate and the avalanche risk was considered too high for an attempt. The team are confident that the route they identified would be viable without the heavy snow fall that affected large parts of Nepla this season.

The expedition was a recipient of the Fred Iseman Award, which is adminsitered by the MEF.
