Gokyo Trek: Elias & Team Trek Over the Renjo La Pass

October 2, 2018

Posted by: Elias de Andres Martos

Categories: Expedition Dispatches Gokyo Trek

Elevation: 17,700'

Good evening from Gokyo. We crossed the apex of our journey, the Renjo La Pass and we made it to the highest village on the way to Cho Oyu, the 6th tallest mountain of the world. We definitely had to put a big fight, since the trail not only climbs to 17,700ft, but it does so on a challenging path, both up and down. Nonetheless, the views from the vantage point, are, in words of the team, "worth the trip". Everest, Lhotse, Nuptse, Makalu, Gyachung Kang... were only some of the peaks that rewarded our tough climb. We're now headed to bed with full stomachs, eager to see the views from this side of the Khumbu for the remainder of the trip. RMI Guide Elias de Andres Martos
