Trekking in Nah Valley (Nathan Berry)
We heard from all three teams overnight in the Khumbu and Nah Valleys. Our Private Trekking team started their downhill trek from Gokyo down past the village of Nah and on to Machermo. This is a mellow trekking day and the team finds themselves dropping back into the trees in route to Phortse.

- 3X2 Team on the summit of Lobuche (Romulo Cardenas)
We received a couple of great photos from our 3X2 with Lobuche Peak Team. The summit day was beautiful – all smiles and blue skies! Tomorrow, the team will head out early for Cho La and stop for the night in Thagnak. This will be a longer day of trekking, but this team is well acclimatized.

Our Ama Dablam Team is now back at Base Camp and will enjoy 3 or more days rest. They had an incredible rotation with 2 nights at Camp 1 and a touch and go to Camp 2. The team will relax and wait out a little wind that is heading their way over the next few days. After that, the Ama Dablam Team will be ready for their summit bid!
