In climbing, a base camp may be set up to provide the starting point for a multiple day or week assault on climbing a mountain. Base camp is used to store supplies that are carried to camps higher up on the mountain.

Why "higher up", I guess "higher" is ok.

Thank you in advance.

Higher would be ok too.

Higher up just collocates nicely.
