Everest Trek: Additional Information

The area we visit is called the Solu Khumbu and is home to the people called Sherpa. As a unique area it has been designated Sagarmartha National Park. Mt. Everest at 29,028 feet, is known by the Nepalese as Sagarmartha, meaning "mother goddess of the world".

There are two ideal "weather windows" for Nepal. Temperatures are relatively warm through the latter half of March until the first of June. Mornings are bright and clear with the air slowly becoming hazier as the day progresses. The color displays of the rhododendron forests in spring time are spectacular. The fall season, the later half of October to early December, is an ideal time for the best mountain views. Cool and clear crisp air greets the trekker each morning and evening.
