Nepal 2010Main Trip for 2010  We aim to repeat the success of our 2008 trip by taking a large party to Nepal . Hopefully we will have runners, budding climbers and lots of normal people who just want a good walk with interesting people. This will be our big expedition of the year.
Everest Region trek The main party will walk in from Jiri on the original classic route. This provides good acclimatisation time and avoids some of the crowds. There will be a variety of side trip options available on the way to Everest Base Camp. Climbing Option Lobuche East is one of the more challenging trekkers peaks. Runners Option The highest official marathon in the world runs from below Everest BC at Gorak Shep (5,140m) to Namche Bazar. We plan to run an informal marathon from Kala Patter (5,550m and one of the best Everest viewpoints) to Namche Bazar. Adventure Challenge Various side trips will provide enough optional challenge for most. The Renjo and Cho La passes in particular will appeal to alpine trampers, while the Barahbise - Shivalaya side trip will give runners an early chance to stretch out.
