and we expect a couple more before we can settle into our routine.\u00c2\u00a0 Team 1 was up and out the door early this morning to catch helicopter flights to Lukla.\u00c2\u00a0 As is often the case, the team did a great job getting out the door, checking in and being ready for the flight to Lukla.\u00c2\u00a0 The weather in Lukla decided to give the team a little more time to think about the flight and what is to come.\u00c2\u00a0 Fortunately, the skies cleared enough for all heli flights to get in and the team is now in Lukla.\u00c2\u00a0 With this slightly later arrival time, the team decided to enjoy Lukla for the afternoon and the hospitality of our friends at the Paradis Lodge and will get up early and hit the trail.<\/p>\n<div id='gallery-1' class='gallery galleryid-25786
