With the face of Lhotse looking at them, the team is left to ponder how to climb the fourth tallest mountain in the world.
The team made great time today and pulled into Chukkung in just under 4 hours. This is a nice set up for tomorrow when they will head up Chukkung Ri and test themselves on the first peak! Chukkung is off the beaten trail and is a great place to visit.  A few of the highlights at Chukkung are Island Peak, Ama Dablam and of course Lhotse!
Beautiful skies ahead!
