IMG Guides Phunuru Sherpa, Stu Johnson, and Justin Sackett checked-in to let us know that the team enjoyed a day of training and a short acclimatization hike in Khare before settling in for a cozy dinner in the tea house. Spirits are high and the team is feeling strong. The team will spend another day in Khare to continue to acclimatize and train rope skills in preparation for their upcoming climb of Mera Peak.
