Everest Dispatch #7
Today was another acclimatization day here at about 12,500 feet. Production team went out predawn to catch the early morning prayers at Tengboche and shoot in early morning light. Unfortunately the low clouds and fog didn’t cooperate with our lighting wishes. Nonetheless we filmed a great dispatch in which we introduce our photographer Jake Norton.

I’m enjoying your weblog and video dispatches. I’ll be trekking to EBC in early May and am looking forward to hearing about your climbing and summit bid. It’s been extremely interesting to hear about and see some of the places I’ll be visiting in a month.

This is about as close to real time as it gets. Thanks and keep it coming. I expect the numbers of people following this expedition are increasing exponentially in anticipation of what’s to come. Thanks from home.
Excellent site for an armchair mountaineer like myself! Keep the updates coming and take care out there!
Loving the coverage so far. Keep up the great work, stay safe and good luck. My thoughts are with you.
