Nov 2018 EBC trek 31

The EBC team’s all here!

The Novem­ber Moun­tain Mad­ness EBC team is final­ly all in-coun­try! Stream­ing in from Colom­bia, UK, and both coasts of the US we final­ly met up as a full team here Tues­day morn­ing and got straight out to stretch out our legs among the hap­py chaos of Kathmandu. 

This sea­son we’re a team of 8- Eric, Nicholas, Tim, Lara, Tom­my, Regi­na and Quentin and me.

Between gear checks, last minute shop­ping, and tons of car­bo-load­ing we spent a day tour­ing the clas­sic tem­ples and stu­pas of Kath­man­du. Fin­ished off by a well-timed birth­day cel­e­bra­tion for Tom­my. Not a bad set-up slic­ing cake with the world her­itage sight of Bhoud­ha Stu­pa as a backdrop!

And with that, an ear­ly night before a predawn start to the domes­tic air­port. So with­out fur­ther ado…Khumbu val­ley here we come!
