Bachendri’s team scale Mt. Island Peak New Delhi, May 2 The team commenced their arduous expedition from Lukla on April 3, with a brief stop-over at Kathmandu. Lukla is at 7,000 ft, which is another place for commencing the approach march for Everest expeditions. The team first reached Namche Bazar after a gruelling climb on the up and down mountain trails. The bazar is one of the highest trading points at 10,000 ft, with barter systems still existing. The expedition was divided into two phases. The first phase was for acclimatisation, in which the team weathered the vagaries of the terrain and environment, and climbed upto Kala Pathar at 18,200 ft and reached the Everest base camp at 18,000 ft. In the second phase, the team reached the base camp at 17,000 ft. The base camp is quite an inhospitable place, with narrow valley full of boulders. There is always a danger of rock fall from either side of the mountain faces. Strong wind and snow slowed down the expedition a bit on subsequent days and a new strategy was devised with a group comprising Seema Tolia, G Anita Devi, Chaula Jagirdar and Prem Lata Aggarwal sitting up one more camp at 18,000 ft. This four-member team set out early morning on April 17 for the Island summit, and keeping up a steady climbing pace, and fighting against the elements, they finally reached the summit at 7.30 am. But team leader Bachendri Pal was not satisfied. With only four women managing to reach the goal, she wanted some more women to go up. Hence, the next day, Chetna Sahoo and Sushma Bissa tried again, and reached IMJATSE. On reaching the summit, the Indian National Flag, the Tata flag and the Indian Airlines flag were unfurled. After returning to the Capital, the team were felicitated by Prime Minister Atal Behari Vajapee and Delhi Chief Minister Sheila Dikshit. Bachendri Pal explained the route map to the Prime Minister and introduced the team members. The PM appreciated the brave efforts of the women, and hailed their feat. |
