Nepal 2001

Gokyo Ri summit
We trekked the Khumbu region of Nepal in March 2001 via a 6 day approach hike from the small town of Jiri. Staying in lodges along the way, we made it to Namche Bazaar, Thame, Gokyo and Chukhung in the Everest region. An area we would definitely like to return to!.......
