Everest 2022 Weekend Update April 10, 2022 - First 8000er Summits


Listen Later

Activity is picking up with climbers getting closer to Everest Base Camp, plus many more have arrived in Kathmandu. The permits have increased as expected this past week but lag behind last year. Teams will arrive at EBC this upcoming week. We saw the first 8000er summits of the 2022 Spring season this past week.  The Khumbu has changed dramatically over the past couple of decades. The teahouses have improved over the ones with poorly ventilated, dark, and cold rooms. Today, the newer ones have large windows, big tables seating entire teams, and excellent food and service. The sleeping rooms are still tiny, cold, and dark, but after a long day of trekking, most people don't care.  

After an update on the Everest 2022 season and the recent, very fast summits on the 8000er Dhaulagiri, I'll describe the trek from Phakding to Tengboche. 

Climb On!
