IMG Guide Nate Berry checked in from Phortse (12,600ft) after a great acclimatization day. Our Island + Mera Peak private team enjoyed clear morning skies and spent the day visiting the Phortse Monastery, the Khumbu Climbing Center, the local school, and the Magic Yeti Library.
Tomorrow, the team will leave Phortse, cross the Dudh Koshi River and trek up to Machermo (14,600ft.), stopping in Dole for lunch. This team is enjoying every minute of their trek to their first big objective, Island Peak.
