While Christine, Erin, Sonam and I stayed behind at Camp Mango, the rest of the team headed out for Camp Teacup, not far from Everest’s East Side Base Camp beneath the Kangshung Face. The weather looks like it’s going to be amazing and I’m very excited for all of us. The team heading [...]

It’s Not Just A Metaphor. The Kangshung region around Everest truly has some of the most remarkable campsites I’ve ever experienced.

Third Side’s A Charm. This morning Everest finally revealed her last secret as we were able to get a clear view of her East Side, the mysterious Kangshung Face.

Uniquely Something Special. We finished our beautiful day of trekking towards Everest’s Kangshung Face by descending into an amazing campsite.
