What is the Temperature at Island Peak in November?

When I started planning my Island Peak Climbing trip for November, one of my first questions was about the weather. November is one of the best months for Island Peak Climbing because the skies are clear and the views are amazing. During this time, the daytime temperature at Island Peak Base Camp (5,087 meters) is usually around -5°C to 5°C . But at the summit, which is 6,189 meters high, it can drop to -10°C or even lower, especially in the early morning hours.

I was a little worried about the cold, but with good gear like a warm down jacket, gloves, and thermal layers, I felt fine. Most climbers say that November is a perfect month because there is very little snowfall, and the winds are not as strong as they are in other months.

About 70% of climbers choose October and November for Island Peak Climbing because the weather is stable and safe for summit pushes.

For me, climbing in November was a great choice. The cold made the experience feel even more real and exciting. If you love clear skies, fresh mountain air, and bright sunny days, November is a wonderful time for Island Peak Climbing!
