An Everest expedition starts long before the climbers and trekkers show up in Nepal, and our Sherpa team have now been working for several months on the preparations. In Kathmandu Ang Jangbu reports that they have now received our big initial food shipment. These items are now being repacked into loads and barrels. Next up will be sending this food along with other supplies and equipment by truck from Kathmandu east to Thaksindu (the end of the road). Then, it will all be airlifted by helicopter sling load to Shyangboche (above Namche).  We’re rolling now!
