The BIG ONE - Sagarmatha, Qomolangma or Mt.Everest
I had a planned to go on the Everest Trek,all the way via Kala Pattar to The Everest Base Camp....but the change of temperatures from the Indian Thar desrt to Kathmandu during monsoon gave me a bad cold with fever.So I had to cancel my trekking dream.I had everything planned out in detail:12 days from Lukla to EBC and back with a very conservative and hence safe altitude gain of 300 vetrical meters on average per day to Gorak Shep(5170m).From Kathmandu you take the plane to Lukla (2850m) to begin with a trek to Monjo(2815m) on the 1st day.On the 2nd day you climb up to Namche Bazaar(3450m),where you take a rest also on the 3rd day to acclimatize to the altitude.Day 4 goes from Namche to Tengboche (3860m) followed by Periche(4280m)on the fifth and Thokla (4620m) on the 6th day. From there you head to Lobuche(4940m)on day 7.On day eight you should reach Gorak Shep,the highest sleeping...
