Everest Basecamp Trek Via Gokyo Valley-Part 4

November, 2021. Part 4 in our journey to Everest basecamp. This episode takes us from Lobuche up to our final destination, Gorak Shep. From there we hike to the summit of Kala Patthar for sunset, then to Everest Basecamp the following morning. Finally, instead of hiking out, we took a helicopter from Gorak Shep back to Lukla.
Thank you Life Himalaya Trekking for guiding us on this incredible journey!

Beautiful pictures but it's a pity to finish this nice trip with an helicopter ! Mountain must be respected , without pollution and not become a new Disneyland !

And for those who don't get the sickness risk, ALL of the water we drank was boiled for 5 minutes(?) at least - don't recall exact time but it was around 5. And still the sickness problems were rampant.

Another point - I was a bit unusual in my response to altitude sickness. At one point I noted you made reference to not having any headache, and for most people a headache is a telltale sign of altitude sickness. But for a minority like me (10%?) it only shows up in other ways such as deterioration of one's balance or in storage visual effects. On the evening when I suffered symptoms it seemed as if something was suspended perhaps a foot below my arms. If I held my arms out and moved them, the faint image under my arms would move a bit more vigorously than my arm movement. Very odd effect. You did not say a lot about altitude sickness but it is incredibly serious - can be lethal. I was lucky I could deal with it doing no more than upping my altitude adaptation medication to the level recommended before the trip by my physician. My symptoms disappeared over night. No more strange images and also able to walk with good balance walking heel to toe with my eyes closed.

I enjoyed your series of the trip. I am taking the same route at the beginning of November (but trekking back to Lukla also), and am very excited. Thank you so much for sharing!

Why the helicopter the last one of these watched they trecked to Everest base camp and pushed it hard and hiked back in 2 days moving 20 miles the first day alone

[@davidheard7746]

What a fantastic life adventure you do such an amazing job putting the video music and explaining everything !!! I rate it a solid 10!!!!

[@Puneridownunder]

Wonderful series of videos. Very informative and scenic. Great camera work, thank you for your efforts 👍👍

[@bryonensminger7462]

The question is though is if you do this and end up as happy with your help as she seams to be what is an acceptable tip when it's over

[@GODISMYSTERIOUS]

Great video!

[@SumSouuthernSugar]

[@pbf1940]

Totally inspired for my attempt in 2023. I always wanted to see more than just ebc. With your toir through the passes and lakes and introduction to life trekking I now have all the info needed for a memorable adventure

[@falcon_inthwoods]

So amazing, I plan on going September 2023 using the same trekking company.

[@patrickmahumot3845]

Well done! Amazing. Thank you for sharing.. God bless for the next journey..

[@janmeetmontu8503]

Very good series. Really enjoyed it 🙏🏼

[@syumassh]

Thanks for this; this is exactly what I'm booked for in mid-Feb 2023. I did EBC in 2010; and wanted to come back after 10 years but we all know about COVID. I'm finally going back to Nepal again; a little short on time as well; so will be doing this combo trek-heli package. Thanks for this! It was very nice footage!
