Acclimatization hike near Khote (Eric Simonson)
The Mera Peak Team took the day to stretch their legs around Khote (11,417ft/ 3480m) and start adjusting to the altitude.  Slow and steady is the key for the first few days in the Hinku Valley. Tomorrow, the Team will head up to Thagnak (14,271ft/ 4350m) and get a great look at their objective, Mera Peak.
