Namche, Nepal

The cyclone pushed us out of Everest Basecamp.  Early yesterday morning, it tried to crush us in our tents.  Heavy, wet snow was falling at the rate of perhaps three inches per hour.  Everything was getting buried fast&#8230; tents, yaks, climbing gear.  It was [...]]]></description>

Everest Basecamp

There are two distinct sounds that jar me away from the day to day life at Basecamp and instantly remind me of the sobering landscape in which we are living. The first starts as a low grumble, like a distant roll of thunder moving up the valley, [...]]]></description>
