Everest Base Camp Trek: Team Hikes from Namche to Deboche

March 25, 2015

Posted by: Casey Grom

Categories: Expedition Dispatches Everest BC Trek

Elevation: 12,325'

It was another beautiful day here in the Khumbu Valley, and finally we had our first views of Mt. Everest. Just above Namche you can see Everest far off in the distance, but still about 20-30 miles away. We hiked for about 5 hours today and made a quick stop at the Tengboche Monastery where we sat in on another prayer session. Everyone is doing well Keeping it short tonight as there's not much wifi or cell service. Everything is running off of a generator that's about to a shut off. Apparently a big snow storm this winter knocked out the hydroelectric power source. We'll send more tomorrow. RMI Guide Casey Grom
