Himex is the name of an Everest guiding company. It is based in France and the lead guide and founder is New Zealander (kiwi) Russell Brice.〔 The name is a truncated version of the full name "Himalayan Experience".〔 National Geographic said Himex was the "largest and most sophisticated guiding operation on Everest" in a 2013 article. Himex's team is known for "fixing lines" on Mount Everest, although in 2012 other teams did this work. The company was founded in 1996 by the climber Russel Brice. The company is noted for increasing tourism in Nepal since that time.〔 In the aftermath of the 2015 Nepal earthquakes Himex pulled out from summiting Everest then. Three of the expeditions of this company were filmed in the television show Everest: Beyond the Limit in the early 2000s. In 2013, David Tait achieved his 5th Mount Everest summiting with a Himex team. (see also List of Mount Everest summiters by number of times to the summit) Brice has pushed for many years now to use helicopters to fly gear over the Khumbu Icefall to the Nepal-side Camp I to enhance safety. ==People of Himex== Russel Brice founded Himex in 1996 and has also been the lead guide.〔〔 One of the people from Nepal who has worked for Himex is Phurba Tashi Noted guide climber and guide Adrian Ballinger worked for Himex until 2012. He started a climbing company called "Alpenglow Expeditions".〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Himex」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
