Hi Chris, have a great time. Yes, I am sure that you have a way better packing list than us doing an expedition. Ours was pieced together from shopping in Kathmandu. We had been traveling around India and Sri Lanka for quite a few months before going to Nepal, so we had to pretty much start from scratch there. Have a super climb and we look forward to following along!

Leaving tomorrow for Nepal to make an expedition to summit Mera Peak (6,476 m). Your packing list was great. If you look at our latest blog, you can see our own Nepal gear list. Keep in mind we’re doing a summit, so we had to have climbing gear.

Hello. Thank you for all this valuable information!! I am leaving in 2 weeks to do this 15 day adventure, and I couldn’t be more excited!! I do have one more question: My camera has a rechargeable battery (ie, not rechargeable individual batteries, but one battery that needs to be charged). What do you recommend for this? Is electricity available as you go up the mountain?? I know you said something about charging batteries and that it is quite expensive, so are you paying for the use of an electrical outlet? Any info would be great! Thanks a bunch!

Interesting. I did this trek end of December 2010. Backpacking was very difficult. I had a backpack of 19 kg and I just wonder how could I get easier in the future.
I have read only one post of it, as I have a lot of exams now and I just returned from Himalaya, but I will read you starting February

Nicky thank you so much for the kind words. You can totally do the Base Camp Trek. Just take your time and drink plenty of water and take diamox. They sell it for really cheap in Kathmandu so don’t bother spending the money and a doctors visit in North America. I can’t wait to hear how your trip goes in both India and Nepal!

I've become a recent daily reader of your blog. My boyfriend and I are heading to India and Nepal for a few months in September and therefore I find your posts even more helpful! I didn't even think about doing the Base Camp Trek before, but your posts have inspired both of us too get in shape and head out for one crazy/beautiful adventure. Thanks for all the advice, sounds like we're going to need it! .-= Nicky´s last blog ..Bigger, Brighter World (Amaris Lasik) =-.
