Sherpa strike expected to dent Nepal tourism
A local mountain guide strike could directly impact Nepal's tourism industry.
Last Friday’s avalanche at Mount Everest killed 13 Sherpas and now the guides are refusing to work under such dangerous conditions.
Nearly 1,500 Sherpas, or mountain guides, work across the Himalayan Mountain range.
Tourism generated $39.1m dollars in 2013 and attracted just under 800,000 visitors to the country.

Khumbu Old faces, 1960
I am grateful to Prof. Christoph von Furer-Haimendorf, Austrian anthropologist, who wrote first book on Nepal’s Sherpa people living below Mount Everest in Khumbu Region. He also captured many photos and made beautiful cine footage. This footage is great asset for the younger generation Sherpas to see my parents, uncles, aunts and many relatives who are no longer with us. This footage is a Sherpa wedding between 1957-61.
Many thanks to Prof Macfarlane-Abaya

Mera Peak I Unique Adventure International I Nepal's Highest Trekking Peak
Mera Peak (6654m.), one of the highest peaks in Nepal is technically easy that entails little more than crampons, ice axe etc. Mera Peak lies between the mighty peak of Mount Everest and Mont Blanc. Along with the landscape of high elevation while ascending Mera Peak, Unique Adventure will assist you to see Mt. Everest (8848m.), Lhotse (8516m.), Cho-Oyu (8201m.), Makalu (8463m.), Nuptse (7855m.), Kanchenjunga (8586m.) and Chamlang (7319m.) amongst many others; different community of Sherpa, Tamang, Brahman, Chhetri, Newar and great Himalayan scenery.
The path moves all the way through the pristine rhododendron, silver fir, oak forest etc. En-route, you can see Mera Glacier and striking alpine lake. Also, Mera Peak trek will provide you with the typical Sherpa society of the Solukhumbu which will be a daydream experience. Mera Peak also has some crevasses all around, and the path can be challenging.
Our trek will begin by moving southeast from Lukla. We will walk all along a high, rocky edge via dense forests and cross several rivers before reaching at the pass and then takes us to the rural Honku Valley. Trekking in this untamed land of Himalayan is indeed an impressive experience. At Tangnag, you will rest and walk around the giant moraine and the stunning glacial lake lying north of the village. We will move forward to Khare (5,099m.) and install camp. Our way up now will follow the glacier that takes us to Mera la (5,415m.) and on to the high camp of Mera Peak. From high camp, we can witness a heart sweeping view of Kanchanjangha, Makalu, Chamlang to the east, to the north you will see Everest and Lhotse and Cho-Oyu and Amadablam to the west. This view is without doubt one of the most eye-catching in all of Nepal. Then, we will reach at the summit of Mera Peak another morning. After that we will return back down the valley to Lukla for our flight back to Kathmandu.

Manaslu Circuit Trek in Nepal April 2017 | Video Review
Manaslu Circuit trek / Larke pass trek in Nepal is one of the most beautiful trek with high mountains (himalayas) old villages, tibetan descendants are still having their culture alive. Manaslu trek is a restricted trekking area so you need special permits and Larke pass gives you an amazing experience and a couple from Australia have conquered it recently. Please watch the video what they say about the trek.

170 POUND PORTER LOAD IN NEPAL (WILLIAM JANS' TOP OF THE WORLD)
William tries to carry a 170 pound porter's load a mere few feet. These loads are balanced off the forehead - a real challenge for westerners to carry. Wait till you find out the height of the man carrying this massive load up to Everest!
Everest climbers trekking from Buland to Bhandar, Nepal
Climbers reach Buland Danda during their expedition to Everest. Climbers are taking a tea break after a trying trek from Bhandar to Buland Danda, Nepal.
Indian Army added another feather to its cap in May 2001, when its mountaineers successfully scaled Mount Everest and put a record eight members and seven Sherpas on the summit. This is the largest number of summiteers on Mount Everest in an Indian expedition.
The mighty mountain ranges of the Himalayas have, over the centuries, inspired not only man's imagination and spiritual quest, but also his spirit of adventure. Mount Everest, the tallest of the peaks of the Himalayas as also the whole world, stood in its unattainable isolation for thousands of years, till Tenzing Norgay and Edmund Hillary conquered it in 1953. Since then, at least a thousand climbers have set foot on it. That at least 200 have lost their lives while trying to scale the peak speaks of the infinite dangers involved in the task.
The Indian Army Mount Everest Expedition was flagged off by the Chief of the Army Staff on 1st March 2001 at New Delhi. It was led by Col. Krishan Kumar. After flagging off, the team moved to Nepal and after a long trek from Jiri, reached Base Camp of Everest on 3rd April 2001.
The stocking and establishment of various camps was completed by 10th May 2001 and summit attempts were planned for 14-15 May. However, bad weather forced the team to return to Base Camp from Camp-II. Weather remained bad for a few days. Finally on 19th May the team started from the Base Camp for their final attempt to reach the summit. On 20th May the first summit team reached Camp-HI and the next day they reached South Col around 1300 hours. The same night the summit attempt started. After making their way through severe winds and subfreezing conditions, the first party consisting of seven members and three Sherpas finally reached the summit of Everest on 23rd May between 0720 hours and 0845 hours. The second team comprising one member and four Sherpas left Camp-Ill around 0630 hours on 23rd May and reached the summit of Mount Everest around 0545 hours on 24th May 2001.
Smooth de-induction to the Base Camp was subsequently carried out wherein all the camps were closed. In keeping with the Indian Army's care and concern for the protection of the environment, all waste was brought down from the mountain.
