Itinerary
We start our expedition a little later than some, as the climbing sherpas are carrying all the loads. This date allows for an early summit window, and also you should still be in good condition for a later window. Note that in 2008 we started our expedition on the same day. This later start also allows for trekking and climbing in the Everest region prior to the expedition start.
