How to trek to Everest Base Camp

How to trek to Everest Base Camp | Trekking | Scoop.it

"Mount Everest has captivated intrepid men and women since the 1920s. The exploits of legends such as George Mallory, Sir Edmund Hillary and Tenzing Norgay put the mighty mountain on the map; thousands have followed, making huge sacrifices – many with their lives – in their own attempts to the summit. But today, the trek to Everest Base Camp has become an achievable goal for people from all walks of life who want a glimpse of the world’s highest peak."

Bradley Mayhew: Trekking the Manaslu Circuit

Bradley Mayhew: Trekking the Manaslu Circuit | Trekking | Scoop.it

"Just back from a couple of months in Nepal, updating the Lonely Planet guide to Nepal. The highlight of this trip was a two week trek around Manaslu, the world's eighth highest mountain and Nepal's latest teahouse trek. Also did a quick blast around the little-trekked Tamang Heritage Trail trek near Langtang and had a wonderful overnight at Nuwakot at the lovely Famous Farm, possibly central Nepal's best-kept secret. Highly recommended!"

Everest Dispatch 1 - Getting There, Kathmandu, Trekking to Basecamp | Trekking | Scoop.it

"Every day is new. There's constant change and sensory overload in the sights, sounds, tastes, and smells we encounter each day. It has been so hard for me to put it all into a coherent and concise piece of writing right now. Our impeding arrival at basecamp, acclimitization process, and eventual summit attempt are all looming, swirling around in my mind like a dizzying hurricane of doubt, excitement, and anxiety. I can't keep it all straight, so forgive me for being scattered. Here are some ups, downs, and facts of the trip so far:

We first arrived in Kathmandu, the capital of Nepal about two weeks ago. It is a totally crazy place to me..."
