An hour’s drive north of Katmandu, a small building at the base of a climbing wall stands on a ridge, at an altitude of 2000 m. It stands on the future site of the mountain memorial, belonging to the Nepal Mountaineering Association (NMA), where for the past three years basic professional training courses, led by French and Nepalese instructor teams, have been organized for mountain guides with the help of the Petzl Foundation.
In 2006, La Chamoniarde, a mountain accident prevention and rescue association, initiated a series of free mountain safety workshops. The goal of these training days is to provide experienced practitioners with the knowledge essential for progressing in glacial environments in the safest possible manner. Since they were first set up, the Petzl Foundation has provided support for these courses.
