It’s pretty official - I’m going to Nepal
August 12th, 2007
I’ve been talking about it for a while, but it was still pretty unbelievable when I hung up the phone with Rusty from REI. I almost can’t believe it but I’m signed up for a three week trekking trip in April 2008.
There’s still a lot of work to be done - plane tickets, visas, packing lists, and I guess some physical training- before I even leave, but it will be worth the trouble. Out of the three weeks, there are 14 solid days of trekking at elevations between 11,000 and 17,000 feet (3,5-5,5km for the rest of the world), including an optional visit up to the Everest base camp. Group size is up to 15 people, plus Yaks, Sherpas and a local guide.
Makes for exciting stuff, I’m sure I’ll spend a lot of nights falling asleep imagining this trip (and thinking through what photo equipment I should bring or buy).
