Tengboche Monastery at night (Tye Chapman)
Our Sherpa Trekking Team was up early for their trek to Tengboche (12,369 ft – 3,770 m). They were welcomed with a light dusting of fresh snow. The team had a fine trek and as the day continued, the skies cleared up! They made excellent time and everyone is feeling great in Tengboche.

After a good lunch at the Dudh Koshi River crossing, they made the climb up to the village. The afternoon was spent visiting the monastery and taking in the breathtaking view of Ama Dablam.
All is well in a winter Khumbu Valley!
