During today’s active rest day, the teams did an acclimatization hike up to the Everest View Hotel and caught their first views of Ama Dablam, Everest, and Lhotse. It was a beautiful, crystal clear blue sky day and the scenery was simply eye-popping.
Tomorrow the Ama Dablam team will head out of Namche and traverse the magnificent valley towards Tengboche. Along the way, they will say farewell to the Gokyo trek teams as they head north into the Gokyo Valley.
