After leaving the footprints of their courage, conviction & commitment on Mt. Everest last year, I am sure the 12 member team would conquer this challenge and create a new history”, he said. These expeditions are a unique employee engagement initiative by ONGC to instill values of camaraderie, team spirit & adventure within the organization, he added.CMD, ONGC Shashi Shanker, said “ONGCians have always proved that no challenge is too big for us. After successfully scaling the Everest, the team has set its sight on one of the most difficult peaks to summit in the world. I wish them all the luck for a successful expedition”. He further added that the ONGC's history shows that we have crossed great challenges with special attention to the safety of all and I am sure that the Kanchenjunga expedition members will overcome all hurdles in the same spirit.Director (HR), ONGC, Mr. D D Misra, who is the driving force behind this initiative, outlined various stages of training program those have been imparted to the participants in the expedition. “The Successful summit of Mt Everest is still fresh in our heart. Being an E&P company, adventure is part of our DNA.

Advance Mountaineering Course - A. B. V. I. M. A. S. - Part 2

Continued from Advance Mountaineering Course - Part 1...

h. Height Gain & Survival Night:

(Day 21 - Day 23)

Height Gain is an activity where the trainees will be made to gain a sudden height of some thousand feet. This activity is used to test whether a trainee can remain stable physically and mentally at high altitudes after gaining sudden height. On the evening before height gain, all the trainees will be provided with dry ration for the activity. For this activity, the trainees will be taken to Friendship Peak (5289 m).

The height gain activity is conducted for two days. On the first day, trainees will move to advanced base camp, by early afternoon, near Lady Leg Ridge below the peak. Before moving to ABC, trainees will have to wind up the tents at base camp to be taken to ABC, collect equipment & ropes, and utensils & food ingredients. The climb towards ABC is a steep climb passing along Beas Kund and then crossing a gully to move towards Lady Leg Ridge. After reaching ABC, trainees will have to establish tents, and then will be divided into groups for spending the remaining time before the actual climb. The Instructors will give instructions regarding the ABC, where to refill water bottles, yellow area and so on.

Later in evening, there will be a fall-in and the entire batch will be divided into climbing ropes and one of the ropes will open the route. Proper instructions will be given regarding the climb, what time to start the climb, the deadline time, and returning back to base camp. After the fall-in, trainees will be served with dinner. Post dinner, trainees will be given some time to rest in their respective tents. One should note that, this activity is called height gain because reaching the summit is subject to weather conditions, but reaching the qualifying height is compulsory. Hence, if a trainee is unable to reach the qualifying height, then the entire hard work of previous 20 days will be rendered useless i.e., a trainee will secure grades other than 'A' Grade. Trainees who wish to stay back and not go for the climb should inform the Instructors before-hand.

The climbing generally starts at 02:00 a.m., and hence trainees will have to be awake by midnight. Trainees are expected to pack their rucksack with all the necessary accessories before the climb and be ready with the climbing gears. Trainees will be served with tea and light breakfast, and after that there will a fall-in before the climb. The route opening rope will move far ahead of others, and then the other ropes will start climbing. The climb towards the summit is of varying steepness, along avalanche-prone area and glacial surface. The qualifying height is approximately at 17000 feet and is a narrow shoulder before the summit. If the weather conditions are good, the trainees will be taken to the summit of Friendship Peak. On reaching the summit, one can get a clear view of the Beas Kund Valley, surrounding peaks, Raigad Glacier, and peaks in the Pin Parvati Valley. Trainees who reach the qualifying height or summit will be noted by the Instructors. The descend will be quick as one can glissade long patches if the snow conditions are good. Depending in which season the course is conducted, the climbing conditions vary drastically from heavy snow conditions to one with full of crevasses.

After reaching the ABC, trainees will have to wait there till all the trainees arrive. Trainees can spend some time to eat and rejuvenate before moving to the base camp. Before moving to the base camp, trainees will wind up the entire ABC and clean it. On reaching the base camp, trainees will have to set up their tents and keep all their climbing gears for drying. All the activities for AMC end after height gain with only survival night remaining.

The next day will be "Adam's Day" and trainees will have no activities to do. They will have to wash all their climbing gears and dry them. In the evening, there would be some short lecture or demonstration or using Avalanche Beacons.

(Day 24)

Test will be conducted in the morning and will cover many many aspects of the entire training. The test will be conducted Rope-wise and will involve vivas, knots and practical demonstrations. Post lunch, trainees will have to pack their entire rucksack and keep it ready for next to move towards Solang quickly. Bush Craft or other activities will be conducted based on various factors.

Bush Craft is an activity which teaches a mountaineer to follow signs and indications in the mountains if he / she gets lost, or is stranded, or the team gets divided due to some forceful conditions. Bush Craft will be conducted in the bushes near the base camp. In this activity, a Rope has to reach the target from the start point by following signs in the bushes, signing check-posts, and each check-post will give instruction to reach the next check-post. The total time of each Rope will be noted down to complete the entire route. The Instructors will explain the rules of the activity and then Bush Craft will be conducted.

Survival is also an important activity that a mountaineer must go through. For Survival Night, trainees will have to spend an entire night outside their tents in natural environment with bare minimum resources. Before the activity, Instructors will be given tarpaulin, ropes and bamboos for making tents. Trainees will be given a certain boundary within which they will have to spend the entire night, and it will be away from the base camp. The Ropes would then be divided accordingly, where two Rope members will have to share the same tents, or a group of 5 - 10 trainees will have to search for a place in the assigned area to spend the night. Trainees will be allowed to carry their sleeping bag inner, windproof jacket, water bottle, torch and personal medications if any. Trainees will not be provided with dinner that day.

Trainees will have to search for appropriate place to spend the night. Trainees are allowed to collect wood / log for camp fire, go to the rivulet to fill their water bottles. Once a place is decided, trainees will have to Instructors where they will be spending the night. They will have to clean the place if necessary, make arrangements for sleeping by spreading the sleeping mats, make camp fire and then spend the entire night. Instructors will come for inspections during the night. Trainees are supposed to return to the base camp the next morning only after a certain time that would be given to them by the Instructors.

(Day 25 - Day 26)

After the trainees return to their tents, they will have to pack their rucksack with the remaining things taken for survival night, clean their tents, and dismantle the entire tent. Post breakfast, trainees will be made to clean the entire base camp before departing towards Solang Nalla. Trainees will then trek towards Solang Nalla and spend a night at the Skiing Institute. The day after, they will trek towards Manali and reach the Institute.

The training comes to an end after reaching Manali, with only the written test remaining. Trainees will have to return all their equipment on that evening, or after the written test.

i. Theory, Written Test & Passing Out Parade:

Theory sessions are very important to learn the theoretical part of mountaineering. Theory sessions will be conducted in the afternoon post lunch. These theory sessions would be based on Ropes, Knots, First Aid, Himalayas, Mountain Weather, Mountain Hazards, Avalanche, Map Reading, Mountaineering Terms, Glacier, Mountain Manners, Equipment, Camp Hygiene, etc. There will also be practical sessions on Rucksack packing, Tent pitching, Avalanche Beacon, Compass Reading, etc.

Mountain Terminologies are very important and these terms define various features of the mountains. Instructors will teach and also show as many features as they can while training or while trekking to training areas. There are many features visible from the base camp and it becomes very easier to understand the features that can be useful for future expeditions.

(Day 27)

Written Test is an examination to evaluate a trainee based on the entire theory lectures and notes that have been dictated throughout the course. The test is of 25 Marks and has questions based on terminology, General Knowledge and other theory questions. The test will be of 1 Hour. After the written test, the trainees will be interviewed by a Senior Director or Instructor. The interview will be taken Rope-wise.

(Day 28)

The Passing Out Parade is the ceremony to felicitate the trainees for successful completion of the course. In this ceremony, the trainees will be given badges for completion of AMC, awards for Best Trainee, Best Rope and Clean Himalaya. There will also be a cultural show where trainees can give dance, singing, acting or any such sort of performance. After the ceremony, there will be a grand lunch. Post lunch, a trainee must collect the Movement Order in order to move out of the Institute.

Trainees will be evaluated everyday for their performance, confidence, behaviour, interactions, attitude, project work and will be given marks accordingly. The entire course is of 400 Marks of which 300 Marks are equally divided among the 3 crafts. To secure 'A' Grade a trainee must secure 70% or more (280+ Marks) and then only is eligible for Methods of Instructions Course.

j. Expedition Project:

Expedition Project is an very important activity for any mountaineer as it helps to properly lay out plans for successful expeditions. In AMC, trainees will be introduced to making a complete Expedition Project so that they have an idea how to plan for future expeditions. On the 1st or 2nd day, the trainees will be given proper guidelines for making the entire Expedition Project to a particular peak assigned to them. The Instructors will explain all the main points that have to covered, what details have to filled in, and then solve doubts, if any.

In Expedition Project, the main points that are to be covered are:

Introduction & Aim of the Project

History & Geography of the Peak

Routes & Routes to be Taken

Expedition Team

Tentative Day-wise Schedule

Equipment & Ration

Medical Cover, Transportation & Other Logistics

Applications to various Organizations & Local Bodies

Sponsors & Acknowledgement

The trainees will be assigned a peak at random and will be given reference material for the peak. Trainees will have to make a detailed report on the above mentioned points. The project work will be during the span of Rock Craft and trainees will have to utilize the spare time to complete the project. Trainees will have to submit the project before leaving for higher camp.
