Producing the Most Ambitious Aerial Archive of the Himalayas
Location Nepal: Permits, helicopters, crews, and logistics for the world’s toughest climate and photography mission.
The Vision
Nepal’s Himalayas are changing faster than ever.
To preserve them, an unprecedented three-year mission will combine open-door helicopter aerial photography, glacier documentation, and cinematic filmmaking. Location Nepal stands at the center of this effort, making it possible to turn vision into reality.
Our Role
As Nepal’s leading production service company, we provide the backbone for this mission:
Permits & Clearances for aerial, restricted, and high-altitude zones
Helicopter Operations with leading aviation partners, safety-certified crews, and precision flight planning
Line Production for international film units, photographers, and broadcasters
On-Ground Logistics for remote Himalayan regions—equipment transport, local crews, high-altitude support
Safety & Risk Management including weather contingency planning and technical backups
Why Location Nepal
For more than two decades, Location Nepal has enabled global productions in some of the world’s most challenging environments. From documentaries and commercials to aerial photography and expedition films, our experience ensures that every detail—from permits to post—runs smoothly.
This project demands not only vision, but flawless execution. With our infrastructure and expertise, the Himalaya Climate Archive will set a new global benchmark in production scale and environmental storytelling.
The Mission
To create the most complete visual and cinematic record of Nepal’s Himalayas ever attempted.
Over three years, Location Nepal will enable more than 300 helicopter flight hours and dozens of high-altitude expeditions. From Everest to Annapurna, Kanchenjunga to Dolpo, our teams will support every phase of aerial documentation, glacial surveys, and cinematic field production. With permits secured, aircraft coordinated, crews deployed, and logistics streamlined, we ensure that this mission can focus on what matters: capturing the Himalayas before they disappear.
