- Gokyo Lakes from Gokyo Ri (Ang Jangbu Sherpa)

- Climbing to Camp 2 on Ama Dablam (Andy Polloczek)
The 3X3 Team climbed Gokyo Ri (17,570’/5355m) today and is now back in the village of Gokyo, resting and preparing to head over their last pass of the trip, Renjo La (17,515’/5338m). The team is having a fantastic trek and collecting world class views along the way.
The Lobuche Peak Team took a well deserved rest day at Base Camp and will be heading over Cho La (17,485’/5329m) in the morning.
On Ama Dablam, the team continues to perform great. They were up early for the descent to Base Camp and made great time coming downhill. Snow showers put down a fresh blanket at Base Camp in the afternoon. The team will rest for a couple days before making a plan to head up on their summit rotation.
All is well in the Khumbu and Gokyo Valleys!
