CTSS Teams are making great progress trekking up the Khumbu Valley.

Western Guided Teams have moved from Periche into Lobuche Basecamp (LBC). They’ll spend the next few days moving to Lobuche High Camp, acclimatizing and finally making their summit bid on Lobuche before descending back to LBC and continuing their trek into Everest Basecamp (EBC). Wifi availability is very limited in LBC and above, so we look forward to getting photos from the team after their climb.

CTSS Private Teams as well as some of our trekkers moved up to Pheriche yesterday. Today the plan is to hike up to a nearby viewpoint at 4800 meters for an acclimatization hike. Soon they’ll be moving up to Lobuche Basecamp as well.

Our big 3rd wave team  Including our EBC Trekkers, 3 Peaks team, Sherpa guided climbers, Lhotse team, and Everest C2/C3 climbers is acclimatizing in Tengboche with a visit to the famous Tengboche Monastery.

Everyone is doing well and, aside from a few light altitude headaches, the team is in fine shape to keep working upwards towards Everest Basecamp. Weather has cooperated and they’re taking in some of the most dramatic landscapes anywhere in the world.

All is well in the Khumbu Valley!

Cheers,

CTSS Team
