The Everest Summit, Lobuche and trekking teams have all arrived safely in Kathmandu and are ready to move up into the Khumbu valley tomorrow and begin the trek in.

We’ve been enjoying a few days in Kathmandu at the iconic Yak & Yeti, allowing everyone to arrive, shake off the jet lag, explore town, grab any last minute gear and simply enjoy the anticipation of the adventures that lay ahead. This afternoon we sat down in the garden for a team briefing to discuss the plan for coming days, cover off expedition logistics, answer questions, address concerns and generally share tips so we’re feeling set up for success.

Our Speed Ascent and Lhotse climbers are a couple of days behind having already started their pre-acclimatization at home. We’re excited for the whole team to be together soon.
