April 17: Comfort in Basecamp!!

Basecamp at last! Hugo, Paul and Charlotte, Amit and Nawal are all here and doing well. All Trekkers, climbers, Sherpas and kitchen staff have arrived— High Adventure Expedition is officially at full strength! We are moving into our tents, already set up in a perfect location on the Khumbu glacier below Mount Everest. Dendi has outdone himself with our carpeted accommodations here above 17500 feet and the Sherpas have worked very hard to dig all our tent platforms out of the glacial ice and snow. Now time to adjust to the new altitude and our beautiful surroundings.
