Annapurna Base Camp

I have returned from about two weeks in the Pokhara and Annapurna region with my clients, Mark & Jen (United States) and Peter and Debra (Australia). We had wonderful views from Annapurna Base Camp (ABC)!

Just returned from Everest / Gokyo!

I just returned from 18 days in the Everest region with two clients, Mark and Jen. A few pictures from these clients are below. You can also view our itinerary (continuing next into Annapurna and then Langtang) on their website here or their blog posts from Nepal.
