South Everest Base Camp after Earthquake
28th of April, 2015
A very special thanks to all our friends and relatives around the globe for their genuine concern towards me and my country people. Although life at the moment in Nepal is heart pinching, however, all those good wishes and prayers sent through to us from around the globe have certainly strengthen our wounded hearts.
I am still at Everest South Base Camp and preparing for final bits and pieces of packing and rescuing.
All climbers from above the base camp have been heli lifted back to base camp safe and sound this morning.
I reckon in few days time the entire South Everest expedition team will be heading back to their near and dear ones after another tragic incident on Everest.
I have been in constant contact with Namgya Sherpa through Set phone and radio and all is well in Everest North side.
Our group from north side Everest expedition has descended back to base camp from ABC yesterday.
We deeply apology for not keeping you guys updated about our expedition.
The phone and Internet connection in Nepal is going on and off. However, we will try our best to keep you all updated about us whenever possible.
The picture below is of South Everest Base Camp today.
