News from Nepal overnight is that everyone is where they are supposed to be! Great news! Our Private Trek and climb of Island and Mera Peak Team has made it to Mera La (17,767’). They will get a good night sleep tonight before moving to High Camp on Mera. The team enjoyed a great trek and are doing well.
Our 3X2 Trek with Lobuche Peak along with our Ama Dablam Team were up early and flew to Lukla. They had perfect weather and are settled into Phakding for the night. This Team is going to have a great trip!
Our Mera Express Trip enjoyed their first acclimatization day in Khote and will trek to Hinku Khola (14,000’), below Thagnak tomorrow. The first couple days of this trek are challenging but once the team gets caught up with the altitude, they enjoy great views!
Our next team on the launching pad is IMG Guide Harry Hamlin with a private Gokyo Loop Trekking Team. They will be looking at the weather in the morning and head towards Lukla to start the trek. The team did gear checks and went over the itinerary today. After work was done, it was time to enjoy a Welcome to Nepal Dinner!
All is well in Nepal!
