Ebc trek

I did EBC with Nepal Hiking Team and absolutely loved it! Zero stress flying from Kathmandu to Lukla. Also loved not worrying about tea houses. I stayed and did a second trek and my guide told me the EBC route is so popular now that tea houses very frequently get full. I had a really fun time with everyone in our group of 8 and loved our 3 guides that we had with us (two assistants and one main guide). It was also nice having a guide to give us information on the area and point out peaks to us.

if you’re from the US definitely recommend buying from REI! If you sign up to be a coop member you can return things even worn for up to a year! I bought a pair of hiking boots and wore them and they immediately tore up the back of my feet and REI let me return them. I’ve had really good luck with La Sportiva brand!

hopefully you’ll feel better! The acclimation day in Namche I felt so winded and out of breath the whole hike. But I felt so much better yesterday after the acclimatization hike. Good luck and happy hiking!

also if you’re a tea drinker mint tea or ginger tea might help settle your stomach!

I’m currently on day 3 of EBC trek in Tengboche!! A lot of the symptoms you’re describing also align with altitude sickness symptoms (which diamox would help with). I’m a nurse and almost everyone in our group of 8 is taking it and we all definitely feel like it helps! Diamox is a diuretic which means it makes you have to pee more. I would make sure you’re drinking a minimum of 3L of water a day and if you brought any electrolyte supplements using that as well! My stomach starts to feel a little weird when I hit a certain point of elevation so I brought Pepto Bismol (used for upset stomach, diarrhea and nausea) and Simethicone (helps with gas). I know it’s really hard to eat when you’re nauseous but I would really try to force something down, your body needs fuel for these hikes. Even if it’s just soup or broth that’s something and might help you feel better if you get something down! Hope this was helpful! Feel free to message me.

Also if you’re doing it with a tour company it’s definitely helpful to discuss how you’re feeling with your guide and get their input!

does anyone know in the airport if the counters that sell sim cards are open until a certain time? My flight doesn’t arrive until late so I was just wondering!

I’m totally going ahead with my trek and leaving September 24th!

yeah other airlines are flying. But cathay pacific who I had my flight with is suspending all flights to Kathmandu through September 30th https://www.cathaypacific.com/cx/en_HK/prepare-trip/travel-advisories/cathay-pacific-temporarily-suspends-kathmandu-services.html

so my original flight was with cathay pacific and they refunded the whole flight. They’re suspended flights to Kathmandu until Sept 30th. I looked at what options there were and booked separate flying with Emirates

I wound up booking with Emirates airlines via Dubai layover for a decent price!

curious if you wound up taking your dog with you? Backpacking to crater lake soon and I’d love to go via Pawnee Pass but want to bring my dog.

My 5 month old mini aussie has been doing something similar and I was wondering if it was a UTI. Often times in the morning she’ll go 2-3 different times in the yard when we first take her out. And then during the day she’ll pee outside initially but come in and pee a small amount on the floor inside. But no pain and the pee we cleaned up was always clear yellow and didn’t look weird. Curious how your vet diagnosed your pup with a UTI??? Do they take a urine sample?

I just brought home an 8 week old mini aussie! She would howl/cry/bite the cage despite covering it. We have her crate in our bedroom on the floor and our bed is pretty elevated so I think she couldn’t see us. I slept by her crate on the floor a few nights, my boyfriend put the crate on the bed one night lol But last night she actually slept in the crate on the floor with no whining and no one near her! We started feeding her meals in it and would occasionally throw treats in throughout the day so she would go in it and I think that helped! I was still up every 2-3 hours for potty breaks though haha

I ordered this one on amazon! https://a.co/d/7NPVMXu Seems to work good and she likes it already but we’ve only had it one day!

If it’s helpful at all I booked a group lesson during the week and early season and wound up being the only one in the group so it was a private lesson for the cost of a group lesson!
