Ama Dablam Expedition


Today is the beginning of the Ama Dablam Expedition, as everyone is flying in from the UK today. After some sightseeing and last minuit shopping we will all leave for Lukla and the Kumbu on Wednesday the 10th. The

plan is to acclimatise by doing Island Peak first which is just under 6200m, and then to go back down to Penboche then up to the Ama Dablam Base Camp which is around 4,800m. This photo of Ama Dablam was taken about two weeks ago on my last trip with our Evereest Base Camp trekkers. There was quite a lot fof fresh snow just over a week ago but the weather has stabilised a lot since then. More news later, Kathy
