December Trekking Team with Taboche and Cholatse (Sonam Dorje Sherpa)
Our December EBC Trekking Team enjoyed another fantastic day in the Khumbu Valley. The Team is feeling great and the weather is helping make this trip something they will never forget. Leaving Dingboche got the blood flowing for the team as they climbed a short hill before making it to the high trail. The high trail takes the team above Pheriche until the small village of Dhugla. From Dhugla, they climb a “small” hill. This little hill before the valley of memories doesn’t look difficult but at nearly 16,000 feet, causes any trekker to take it slow and do some heavy breathing. Once at the top of the hill, it is only a short distance to Lobuche Village (16,200ft). The team will head to Gorakshep and a visit to Kala Pattar and Everest Base Camp for Christmas!
