IMG leaders Greg and Jangbu report that the first group of Classic climbers and trekkers have now arrived to Kathmandu with all their duffel bags. Tomorrow they will have their team meeting, visits to the Ministry, and welcome dinner. After some long plane flights, everyone is excited to hit Kathmandu!
The duffels that we sent to Manthali yesterday arrived today into Lukla via Cessna 208 cargo flight and now have been sent on up the hill. Up in the Khumbu, everything is proceeding on schedule for our Hybrid teams. They are all in Namche Baazar tonight and doing well. Justin Merle reports that his crew had a nice hike up to Khumjung today, and they were able to send some nice photos from their hike.
Highlights of the day included getting to watch the MI 17 heli arrive in Shyangboche from Jiri and having some great views from up by the Everest View Hotel. Looks like the weather is cooperating!
