- 2018 Cho Oyu Sherpa Team (Phunuru Sherpa)
We heard from IMG Guide Dallas Glass overnight with short and sweet message; “Visas and Passports in hand.â€Â Great news!
We like to take these expeditions one step at a time. The first thing we like to hear is “all climbers and duffels have arrived safely to Kathmandu.â€Â With Cho Oyu, the next big steps are that our “Advanced Sherpa Team has arrived at the Tibetan Border” and “we have permits, visas and passports in hand.â€
With these three big objectives checked-off, we’re now looking forward to hearing from Dallas and Phunuru that the Cho Oyu Team has crossed the Tibetan Border. We won’t get this update until tomorrow, for now we wait. The Team will be up and out the door at 4am tomorrow morning to beat the Kathmandu rush hour traffic.
All is well in Nepal!
