Description

Expedition to Everest Base Camp via Gokyo Lakes with an extension for Lobuche East & Island Peak. Leading 1 client working with an assistant leader, local guides and porters. Coaching in self-care in the mountains, nutrition & hydration, dealing with altitude, movement skills, packing rucksacks and the full range of skills necessary for the mountains and Nepal.
Day 15. Island Peak. Another perfect ascent with Claire dping brilliantly maintaining a good solid pace and pushing through on the headwall.
After summit we continued down to Chukung as it was misty and starting to snow, the tea house had no beds so we continued on back to Dingboche another epic but brilliant day. Glad the weather did actually change and justify our efforts to make it to Island in time.
