This mountain can be climbed all year round, N and is a good place for climbing and rescue courses due to the amount of crevices and climbing walls. Its name comes from Yana, which means black and Paccha, which means waterfall. Its full name would mean Waterfall in a black mountain.

evado is the third highest peak of Huascaran mountain of the massif, located in the Cordillera Blanca, between the two peaks of the Huascaran and , in the N Yungay province.

Technical Skills

Our climbing route consist of a vertical 50 -60 degree angled wall, where with the use of ice axe we climb on forzen pathway with ice formation on both the sides. Climbers should be efficient with kick step and balancing with ice axe on icy slopes to ascend on vertical climb.

Trekking\Climbing Fitness

Live Your Story Namas Adventure

When it comes to expedition the more fitter you are and more stronger the better your chances of successfully climbing to the summit and most of all enjoying the expedition. The grading system gives you an indication of the level required for each expedition both technically and physically. It is very important that you train and build your level of fitness depending on your choice of expedition and whilst on expedition if your fitness is deemed to be inadequate our leaders would ask you to remain at camp. Please discuss with our guiding leaders on how you feel and weather you can actually make that push during all climbing/expedition, as we take your and staff safety seriously and would not want any unchecked incidents or miss out on your successful summit bid.

Adventure Travel – Accuracy of Itinerary

It is on our best interest to operate our expeditions as printed in the itinerary but due to unseen circumstances it may be necessary to make some changes as a result of flight schedules, climatic conditions, limitations of infrastructure or other operational factors. As a consequence, the order or location of overnight stops and the duration of the day may vary from those outlined. We would ask for your patience in this case as a lot of these can be out of our hands and we will best decide to plan alternatives.

Our assigned leader is responsible for the overall safety of the whole team during the expedition and will encourage the use of safe climbing practises during the expedition. They will ensure that every opportunity is taken to fulfil the objectives described in the trip’s outline itinerary, but have the freedom to modify any plans subject to weather, delays or unforeseen circumstances which are deemed to be out of the control of Namas Adventure. The leader will maintain a good team spirit and attempt to keep morale high for the whole group. Wherever possible the leader will keep the Namas Adventure office informed of team progress and any emergency situations that may arise.

Namas Expedition leaders are experienced members of Nepal mountaineering associations. Local guides possess the detailed local knowledge we need to achieve our goals and support our teams. They do not guide in the same way as UIAGM/IMFGA Alpine Guides, but work in the more traditional sense as route finders and assistants to our expedition leader. We encourage our groups to work as teams, helping to support and trust each other throughout the duration of the expedition.
