- Loading gear to Thaksindu (Ang Jangbu Sherpa)
Ang Jangbu checked in with news from Kathmandu and the Khumbu Valley. Our first big gear load is on the move after being loaded in Kathmandu and driven to Thaksindu. From Thaksindu, the gear takes scenic flight via helicopter sling load up to Pangboche where it is welcomed by long time Senior IMG Guide Ang Pasang. Most of the gear made it before the winds picked up and shut operations down for the day.
