Episode 081: Shegar (New Tingri)
Everything New Is Old Again. We've rolled into the little town of Shegar, otherwise known as NEW Tingri. Man, what a sense of deja vu. I feel like I've been here before.
Actually, in many ways I have. New Tingri looks and feels just like Old Tingri, the little town Ben, Major and I tried to acclimate in back in 2003. Even the hotel we're staying in looks exactly the same. The difference is that the toilet facilities in Old Tingri were so much worse they were actually better than here in Shegar.
See, in Old Tingri there was a toilet that had no roof over it and so was exposed to the elements. Let's just say it had a nice, refreshing breeze blowing trough it. No such luck here in New Tingri. The air inside the bathroom is oppressive.
These are hard places to live but the people are the friendliest yet. I have found that to be true the world over.

Shigatse-Mount Everest Base Camp Roadtrip, Tibet
Yet another long roadtrip. The final 100km heading to Mount Everest Base Camp was along a gravel road which restricted vehicles to a maximum speed of 40km/h to avoid turbulence. The entire journey took nearly 10 hours including stops. It started snowing shortly after we reached our tent hotel. Watch my video to the end as i said goodbye to my 20s and welcomed my 30s with some style. Enjoy watching.
Olympic Torch Relay Mt Everest Torch at Base Camp
Beijing (PTI): A special Olympic flame has reached the Mount Everest base camp for its ascent to the worlds highest peak in the restive Tibet, which witnessed the worst anti-government protests since 1989.
The flame reached the base camp Sunday, an official with the Mt Qomolangma (Everest) Olympic torch relay said in Tingri County of Tibets Xigaze Prefecture, official Xinhua news agency said.
The torch which reached the camp is separate from the one on the global run, which was today passed through South Korea before it was headed for North Korea. It's passage was marred by protests in London, Paris and San Francisco.
A team of torch bearers would take the flame to the summit on a day when weather permits.
Security personnel have been deployed in good strength at the Base Camp to ward off any possible attempts to disrupt the relay plans on which Beijing has invested much prestige.
Reports said China has banned climbing expedition from its side, and authorities in Nepal had also tightened security to prevent any trouble from the southern side of the border straddling mountain.
The flame to be taken to the Mount Everest is specially designed to keep it burning in thin air.
China had recently announced the completion of work on improving the 108-km highway to the Mt Everest in preparation for the relay to the summit, which the regional government has vowed to make a complete success.
The highway was built from a makeshift road between Xigaze prefecture and the Mount Everest Base Camp under a USD 21 million project that began in June last year.
Over 90 per cent of the roadside had been covered by grass.

Video 5: Day 7 of our Family Trip in Tibet (Tingri to Shigatse)
Video 5 of 5. Tingri to Shigatse, Tibet. This was another quick drive that went over one mountain pass that was above 17,000 feet above sea level.
Our family of 7 took a trip to Tibet in January 2019. I made five videos talking about how our family did with the change in elevation as we traveled to Everest region and back. Our kids were aged 10, 8, 6, 4, and 22 months at the time.

Mount Everest, known in Nepali as Sagarmatha (सगरमाथा), in Tibetan as Chomolungma (ཇོ་མོ་གླང་མ) and in Chinese as Zhumulangma (珠穆朗玛), is Earth's highest mountain above sea level, located in the Mahalangur Himal sub-range of the Himalayas. The international border between Nepal (Province No. 1) and China (Tibet Autonomous Region) runs across its summit point.

The current official elevation of 8,848 m (29,029 ft), recognized by China and Nepal, was established by a 1955 Indian survey and subsequently confirmed by a Chinese survey in 1975.[1] In 2005, China remeasured the rock height of the mountain, with a result of 8844.43 m (29,017 ft). There followed an argument between China and Nepal as to whether the official height should be the rock height (8,844 m, China) or the snow height (8,848 m, Nepal). In 2010, an agreement was reached by both sides that the height of Everest is 8,848 m, and Nepal recognizes China's claim that the rock height of Everest is 8,844 m.[5]
In 1865, Everest was given its official English name by the Royal Geographical Society, upon a recommendation by Andrew Waugh, the British Surveyor General of India. As there appeared to be several different local names, Waugh chose to name the mountain after his predecessor in the post, Sir George Everest, despite Everest's objections.[6]
Mount Everest attracts many climbers, some of them highly experienced mountaineers. There are two main climbing routes, one approaching the summit from the southeast in Nepal (known as the standard route) and the other from the north in Tibet. While not posing substantial technical climbing challenges on the standard route, Everest presents dangers such as altitude sickness, weather, and wind, as well as significant hazards from avalanches and the Khumbu Icefall. As of 2017, nearly 300 people have died on Everest, many of whose bodies remain on the mountain.[7]
The first recorded efforts to reach Everest's summit were made by British mountaineers. As Nepal did not allow foreigners into the country at the time, the British made several attempts on the north ridge route from the Tibetan side. After the first reconnaissance expedition by the British in 1921 reached 7,000 m (22,970 ft) on the North Col, the 1922 expedition pushed the north ridge route up to 8,320 m (27,300 ft), marking the first time a human had climbed above 8,000 m (26,247 ft). Seven porters were killed in an avalanche on the descent from the North Col. The 1924 expedition resulted in one of the greatest mysteries on Everest to this day: George Mallory and Andrew Irvine made a final summit attempt on 8 June but never returned, sparking debate as to whether or not they were the first to reach the top. They had been spotted high on the mountain that day but disappeared in the clouds, never to be seen again, until Mallory's body was found in 1999 at 8,155 m (26,755 ft) on the north face. Tenzing Norgay and Edmund Hillary made the first official ascent of Everest in 1953, using the southeast ridge route. Norgay had reached 8,595 m (28,199 ft) the previous year as a member of the 1952 Swiss expedition. The Chinese mountaineering team of Wang Fuzhou, Gonpo, and Qu Yinhua made the first reported ascent of the peak from the north ridge on 25 May 1960.[8][9
