This is a view from Gokyo Ri.
Please give generously to the disaster fund.
This was one of the best views from the biggest walk of my life.
Great evening view from Chhukung Ri towards East and South. Ama Dablam (6814m) towering over the valley on the right side Far left background Makalu (8481m) and Baruntse (7129m). Solukhumbu, Nepal.
Finally it looks like we may be taking small small steps out of lockdown, but the hills of Wales and Scotland are still going to be out of bounds. To mark the moment, I thought I would upload an older image of the biggest 'hill' of all, Everest. Taken not that far from Everest Base Camp, this shows the enormous ice cascade, the Khumbu Icefall, slowly grinding and crashing its way down from the Western Cwm to join the Khumbu Glacier. The summit of Everest glowers black against the deep blue sky, rinsing another 11,000 feet above the point where i was standing.
Imja Tse / Island Peak (6189m). One of the most popular "Trekking Peaks" in Nepal. With a view towards Peak 41, Mera Peak, Kangtenga, Ama Dablam and many more. Because of its location (close to Chhukung and therefore Namche and Lukla) Island Peak is relatively easy to approach compared to other mountains.
From the top of Gokyo Ri, we look down on the village of Gokyo under the prayer flags.
Looking back toward Gokyo, Mt Everest, in the center, towers above all else.
Ama Dablam towers behind, on the way to Kongma La.
Mike walks a the ridge, overlooking Ama Dablam.
Dingboche sits in a beautiful valley along the Imja Khola River. Ama Dablam towers above the village in the far right of the photo.
The Everest-Lhotse-Nuptse massif rising above everything else. Seen from Renjo La - one of the "three passes" in the Khumbu area (~5400m), Nepal. With the 3rd Gokyo lake to the left, Makalu in the far distance and the steep Cholatse on the right side.
Este monasterio alberga unos 60 monjes. A finales de Octubre o principios de Diciembre se celebra el Mani Rimdu, un festival en el que los monjes bailan con llamativas máscaras al ritmo de tambores. Se encuentra en un lugar privilegiado con unas excepcionales vistas del Ama Dablam y el Lhotse.
This monastery accommodates about 60 monks. In late October or early December is celebrated Mani Rimdu Festival, which the monks with striking masks dance to the beat of drums. It is in a prime location with exceptional views of Ama Dablam and Lhotse.

Sunny vista from the ridge near Kongma La - one of the three passes in Nepal's Khumbu area - towards Lobuche, Gorak Shep and Pumori on the far right side.
This is another view of Mount Everest as it towers above Gokyo. We are on our way to cross the third high pass of our trek, Renjo La (17,585 feet)....

We got back to Namche around 2 PM. The sun was still warming the day.
In Pangboche (3930m), the town which we can see in the inferior angle of this photo, begins the way to climb up this fabulous mountain. En Pangboche (3930m), el pueblo que podemos ver en el ángulo inferior de esta foto, comienza el camino para subir esta fabulosa montaña.
Trekking to the Everest Base Camp. Sagarmatha National Park. Nepal.
Reported epicentre of today's earthquake, and a place that will be known to anyone who has visited the Everest region of Nepal.
In our thoughts.
The star of the show at sunset this night was Ama Dablam, 6,812 m (22,349 ft)
Ama Dablam (22,349 ft), taken from the village of Chhukhung (15,500 ft) in Sagarmatha National Park, the Everest region of Nepal.
Chukhung Ri is 17,800 feet. This is not the top, but it is the better viewpoint.
The day's end draws near and I am about to go crazy taking photos of the light on the mountains.
Gokyo sits at the edge of Third Lake. We were treated to a light dusting of snow on the previous day, leaving a beautiful white landscape on this...
