Here are our updates from the Khumbu Valley. Our Western Guided team and 3 Peaks team have arrived in Namche, following our second Rugged Luxury team, who departed earlier today after their rest day.

Our first Rugged Luxury team celebrated trekker Gerry’s birthday in Pheriche. Tomorrow, this team will depart from the well-trodden path to Everest Base Camp and take the high road to Lobuche Base Camp. At CTSS, we pride ourselves on our acclimatization schedules, and getting all of our trekkers to Lobuche Base Camp for two nights, plus a trek to Lobuche High Camp, is one of the many ways we support proper acclimatization.

Back in Kathmandu, our Private 1:1 and Lobuche team climbers are dialed in and ready to fly to Lukla in the morning!

Thank you to CTSS Guide Nani S. for sharing these photos of our Western Guided team.
