That would be amazing.

Thanks for the order!

Thanks!

I bought an axle from Anchor mountain in colorado. I need to get it closer to home. I just don't have the time to go grab it right now. I am happy to pay for the delivery within reason.

I posted some of the last trekking days for you. We ended up going into the jungle after were were done walking to get warm and see some cool animals. I may post that stuff up later. Most people fly into Lukla and start the trek from there. You could take a helicopter ride from there up if...

Trekking day 9- Gorak Shep to Pangboche (13074) We woke up at about 6:30 to have breakfast and get headed down. No one except Jami had an appetite so we didn’t eat much. We headed down through Lobuche and then Lobuche pass. The weather was decent and didn’t cause us any problems. Each step...

The coldest temp that we actually saw was just before bed time one night. It was minus 17f. There are definitely colder other places in the world and very rarely Utah is one of them. Maybe for you it wouldnt be that cold, for us it was. During the day at lower elevations it was not that bad...

SO true! The Nepali people loved the beard. They aren't known for growing facial hair :-). I heard a lot of comments about yak, yeti, etc.

Yes, my son is wearing Grumpy Bear pajamas at base camp. 12 year olds are fun! It was really freaking cold at the higher elevations. He bought big puffy onesie PJs to stay warm at night(he also had merino). He decided he didn't want to take them off up high so they stayed on all the time...

Trekking day 8- Lobuche to Everest basecamp (17601) to Gorakshep (16930) Woke up early because we had a long day ahead of us. It took me about 5 minutes to stand up. I was pretty weak. It was exciting to be shooting for base camp this day. The hiking is at a snails pace at this point. The...

Trekking day 7- Dingboche to Lobuche (16164) 7 hours walking. We woke up to a decent amount of snow on the ground. No wonder the night was so warm. The guide pulled us aside and asked if we wanted to continue on or wait till the next day when it warmed up and some of the snow was gone. We...

Trekking day 6- Acclimatization day in Dingboche We got up around 7 to get ready for todays acclimatization hike. I say got up because we woke up much earlier. Sleeping for me would usually go something like this. Go to bed at 8 and sleep till 9 or 9:30. Wake up till 2-4 am and fall back...

Trekking day 5- Pangboche to Dingboche (14295) 4 hours walking today was a really short day since we hiked extra the day before. Dingboche was quite a bit bigger than I expected and the walk wasn’t particularly hard. It was Nepali flat. Which means a whole bunch of up and down. Flat doesn’t...

Trekking day 4- Namche Bazaar to Pangboche (13074) 8 hours walking today. We were originally going to stay at Tyangboche, but our guide convinced us to walk further that day so we could have a warmer night in Pangboche. ALL of the water in Tyangboche was frozen. There is no running water even...

Trekking day 3-Acclimatization day at Namche Bazaar Some people mistakenly call acclimatization days rest days. We put in a solid hike up to the Everest view hotel. It is a very upscale hotel considering where it is located. It is fairly expensive at about 100 per night. That is a ton...

Trekking day 2-Phakding (8700 ft.) to Namche Bazaar (11,283 ft.) This is a BRUTAL day. 6 hours of walking and 3 hours of it was straight up. That hill was huge. Namche is a really beautiful town. Built right into the hillside at over 11,000 feet. A stream rapidly spinning 8-foot tall prayer...

The next morning we woke up at 4:30 am to catch our flight to Lukla. It is touted as one of the most dangerous airports in the world. Our guide purchased our tickets for us and even though we weren’t the first people there the plane service workers passed all people with no guide and grabbed...
