BIG avalanche off of Everest’s West Shoulder just now. Fortunately, it kept a somewhat respectable distance from base camp as we pack everything up, and serves as a prompt that it may be finally time to head out of here. Planning to start our way to Kathmandu tomorrow and head for home over the next several days… Stay tuned.

Path to Everest 
Safe travels!
Mike Walkley
Thanks. Fingers crossed.
Thinking of you and wishing safe travels.
Thanks, Janet.
Prayers for you, Carla and your team’s safe return home.
All our best,
Brenda
Brenda, thank you for keeping us in your prayers!
I’ve been following your posts. This is a truly unbelievable experience and glad you’re ok. Good luck and safe travels….hope to hear you’re back safe in the U.S. soon!
Thank you, Leslie. We were very fortunate relative to all of those impacted.
Jim,
Sorry to hear that you have once again found yourself in the midst of some pretty horrific circumstances. You are to be complemented on your grace and well-placed priorities. I hope your journey home goes well. Congratulations to you and Carla on your engagement… I’m sure the challenges in the next few days will only deepen the bond.
Take care,
Bob
Thank you, Bob. Greatly appreciated. The challenges this presented certainly deepened our bond further. After having her fly-in to meet me in Thailand last year a day after the coup there, she is certainly “battle-tested,” although may be having a bit of buyer’s remorse…
I have been worried. I knew Carlita and you were heading that way, but wasn’t sure if you were there at the earthquake. Big hug to you both. Safe travels, and God’s speed. Laura
Thanks, Sida. Big hug received and soon to be reciprocated.
