Our Mera Peak Team arrived to Kathmandu with all of their gear and flew to Lukla for the start of the Mera Peak Climb. The plan is to sleep in Lukla (9,334ft / 2845m) and fly to Khote (11,417ft/ 3480m) in the morning by helicopter. This trek starts with some old fashion duffle shuffle and various forms of air travel to get the Team far enough up and out to enjoy the remote Hinku Valley. With the monsoon starting to move away, the Team is expecting to get some great views of the Himalayas over the next two weeks!
