In his own words, " I was
born in-and lived most of my life in-Pangboche, a small villiage in the
Solo-Khumbu region of Nepal. Through Wilderness Experience, I have been working
with treks for most of my life, and my climbing career started when I was late
in my teens. Although I owe a great deal of my mountain climbing income and
success to Adventure Consultants, out of NZ, I have worked with many expeditions
throughout the years. I have traveled and worked for many expeditions around
the world. For many years, I have traveled to Norway to guide on the
Galdhoepiggen Mountain (the highest mountain in Norway). I currently live in the
U.S. with my wife, Michelle Gregory. While I am still adjusting to my new life
in Buffalo, NY, I am working on my English and starting the long road to IFMGA
certification. I suspect I will be climbing for years to come."
Ang
Dorje will probably be always known to the masses at
the sirdar of the Rob Hall 1996 Everest Expedition,
but to those close to him, they know him better. He is
one of the most highly respected climbers on the
mountain.
