IMG Senior Guides, Andy Polloczek and Phunuru Sherpa, checked in from the Khumbu Valley today. Andy is with our Ama Dablam and Lobuche climbing teams along with the 3X3 trekking team. It was a gorgeous day for trekking from Pheriche up to Chukkung. Everyone is feeling great and looking forward to their climb of the first peak on the 3X3, Chukkung Ri (18,238’/5558m) tomorrow.
Over at Ama Dablam, Phunuru called to let us know Base Camp is ready for our team’s arrival and the weather is beautiful. Taking full advantage of the weather, Phinjo Dorje, Dawa Tenzing, and Nawang Tsering headed up to Camp 1 and 2 with additional gear and to set up more tents.
Great day in the Khumbu Valley!
