The 7 Summits Club Guide Boris Egorov reports from Nepal:
Hello everyone from the trekking route in the Himalayas! In the morning, we flew to Lukla by helicopter without any problems and went on the trek. And although we were in no hurry and stopped for tea and photo sessions, we still arrived in Phakding village in 2.5 hours. The altitude is 2600 meters, and we feel great. The service at the lodge is amazing. Clean, cozy and delicious. Now is the time to rest. Tomorrow is a longer trek with a decent gain in altitude. We are looking forward to meeting Namche Bazaar!
