Everest Base Camp Trek Dispatch
October 1, 2015 – The Hike from Namche to Dole
Hi everyone, this is Ang Temba calling from Dole; it is about 13,150 feet above sea level. We had two night stay in Namche and today we started walking from Namche at 8:00 AM heading up the Mon Hill and had lunch at Mon.
After that beautiful walk through the forest, the Mon La and Phortse Tanga, we arrived in Dole. There are waterfalls everywhere and a nice jungle. Everyone is doing very well. It was a bit cloudy today but that was perfect for walking up. In the evening it cleared up and we saw a lot of mountains like Thamserku and Kantega from Dole.
