Our December EBC Trek showed us what a perfect day in the Khumbu Valley looks like. The Team started the day with a good breakfast followed by an acclimatization hike to the Everest View Hotel. Not a cloud in the sky for their first views of Ama Dablam, Lhotse and Mount Everest. From the Everest View, the team trekked around to Khunde for lunch.
Upon returning to the lodge in Namche, a special reunion was had. Stay with me here…some of our December EBC Team climbed Kilimanjaro a couple years ago and their leader was IMG Guide Phunuru Sherpa. Phunuru is on his way to Kathmandu to prepare for his upcoming climb of Kilimanjaro and stopped in to say hello to the team and have a mini reunion with his Kili climbers.
Perfect weather and meeting friends. That is a perfect day in the Khumbu Valley!
