This was a perfect day to visit Everest Base Camp. The team is really performing well with the high altitude. They made great time to Gorakshep (16,900 ft) had a little lunch and got their rooms in the teahouse and then took off for Everest Base Camp (17,500 ft).

Craig shared the history of Everest with the team and in Craig’s words, “We could have stayed for much much longer and I (Craig) was one of the main culprits.†Craig has been thinking about the South Side of Everest for about 40 years and to arrive there is a special moment for everyone.
The views and the history of Everest Base Camp are amazing and tomorrow, Kala Pattar!
