yes, there was a lot of falls.

You could have gone with ua

Thank you.

Head mount and an older GoPro.

Thanks a lot sir.

Use a head mount. Excited to the the newest GoPro this winter for Aconcagua

Haha. Good joke. It is a very interesting and beautiful culture

Thank you.

Thank you. I think the video is a little slow for most people, but some really enjoy the longer format.

One of the hikers was having trouble acclimating. I plan to go back in a few years and try a different route up.

Namche Bazaar and below has electricity. Above Namche Bazaar, all electricity is from solar panels. So once above Namche Bazaar you need to pay by the hour for charging and internet unless you bring your own solar panel. You are correct, there are no roads, but the foot path is wide and for the proper amount of money, they will carry anything up that you want.

Thank you, I am glad you are enjoying the video.

More on Rainier coming soon.

Thank you, and wait till you see Aconcagua, the new GoPro 10 looks amazing, time for an upgrade.

Thank you, more videos coming soon!

A head mount. Most drones have an altitude limit below 8,000 feet or so and have been “outlawed” in a lot of places such as Machu pichu

There is no “standard” trek, but that’s what most people do, and most think it is the hardest part. You land in Lukla at 12 feet and then on day 2 it’s almost all uphill without the body acclimated yet. There are two tea houses you could spend the night for a slower experience. And $20 to $40 a day on the hill. Take all the time in the world

If you can, pass through Phakding and spend your first night in Monjo. This makes the Second day to Namche a shorter trek. It is only after the last footbridge across the river between Monjo and Namche that the trek becomes all uphill. It is not easy, but it is far from being too hard if you have done some training (which you should have).

@@shanechidester1328 I completed my 15 days EBC trek from 11/6-11/20/22. It took me a total of about 6 hours to trek from Phakding to Namche Bazaar. The toughest part began right after crossing Hillary Suspension Bridge. I gave myself a few minutes’ break frequently to allow my body to adjust to the altitude. Some people started feeling headaches when they reached Namche Bazaar because they pushed forward too anxiously. This trek is a challenge of endurance calmly with each steady step. You really can’t waste energy to complain. This only exhausts you further.

@@GODISMYSTERIOUS I agree. New Machu Picchu videos coming soon. Completed the classic Inca trail last week and got far behind at work.

@@billsmith6884 Many people who travel on their own or hire their own sherpa guide and porter, they can choose that schedule. It would be easier. Moreover, you may add more days for acclimatization and resting to give your legs a full rest on resting days.

Are you planning to do this trip soon?

@@shanechidester1328 Yes. I love Mt. Everest. I am unable to climb it but I want to walk on a trek to get a close view of it. Love your videos. Once I get my renewed passport back, I wanna to buy airfare to go to Nepal ASAP.

@@GODISMYSTERIOUS thank you for that. It is a great trip and worth it. Glad you like the videos. I was not sure how the long format would go over but a lot of people love the longer format. Enjoy your trip

@@shanechidester1328 I do love the long format which shows the real thing. I have a better picture of the trek.

It gets more rugged with altitude but not bad.

@@shanechidester1328 You are so right. I made the comment before I actually trekked on it. Once I experienced it myself on Nov 9, 2022, then I realised certain terrains are truly rough, rocky, uneven and up and further up to higher altitude.

Thank you for your comment. It was in April of 2019. Will be going back in a few years and doing a different route with the hope of getting more amazing videos.

Thank you for the comment. Have a Mount Rainier hike and Aconcagua hike I will also be posting.

@@shanechidester1328 Many thanks for this video from someone who got acute altitude sickness at 3600m in Lhasa and who would probably be unable to continue the trek any further than Namche Bazaar.

All the music came from “TH-cam royalty free music”. Just search it, it’s easy to find.

That is just the way they wanted to take us. Planning to go back in a few years with the nephews and do that route.

@@shanechidester1328 Guides always want to use the easiest route where they get their customary kickbacks from the lodges and can drink chang with their mates. They are not interested in offering anything out of the ordinary to their clients, sorry to say. Some non-local guides do not even know there are other trails available, they are just automatons walking up and down the same rails time after time. Trekkers should do some research before the trek, look at the maps and do out-of-the-box thinking. Next time!

Thank you.

Thank you.

A

It was the porters choice to carry 2 bags. We tried for 2 and they would have nothing to do with it. Also you will notice there are also orphanage videos on here from donations we made. More then ethical.

Red, make sure to get all the facts right before judging other's peoples life. Otherwise you just look stupid.

You judgmental arsehole.

@@billsmith6884 nothing wrong with being judgmental - it is the what sets a human being apart from an animal. You all braindeads from the newer generations saying that "you shouldn't judge" are just doing a disgrace to yourself

@@amoreazione3563 Fuck you. There is plenty wrong with being judgmental. By the way, I am hardly what you would describe as being from the 'newer generation'; so you should get your facts straight before you start judging other people. Shit kicker.

Thank you, nest year Aconcagua!

@@shanechidester1328 YESSS!!!!

I agree with you. If the music is softer, then it will be much less disturbing and we can concentrate more on the scenery.
