you are most welcome

[@bharatbshetty]

Appreciate your time and video quality and information but I am shocked that most mountains have very less snow 😢. Can you help me understand?

[@ZakTravelVLog]

Snow develops when temperature drops below 0°C or 32°F and when it is humid. When the air gets warmer, it will begin to melt. As for the peak of Mt Everest, there is always volume of snow. However, it is thinning because of few factors including climate changes and drifting snow. If you watch closely this video, you may be able to see something like white "dust" moving away from the mountain. Watch my video "Everest & Himalayas helicopter close-up Part 3 Kala Patthar & Hotel Everest View" and you will see snow drifting from Everest peak. Drifting snow (powder snow) caused by the wind. It can also be termed as snow blizzard. Some mountains have no snow is because of the angle and topology of the mountain. Jagged and high angle slope retain less snow. Another example during the Everest earthquake, an avalanche occurs starting from Mt. Pumori which bring down the snow all the way to Everest Base Camp that caused tragic loss of life. Lower elevated mountains snow will melt during summer.

Lovely video. Are you talking about Lobuche? "Low boo shay"? Flight is more like 20 mins to EBCand 20 mins back.

[@ZakTravelVLog]

Thx. My bad on mispronunciation. The entire Everest journey - Kathmandu to Lukla airport to Kala Phattar landing then heading north to EBC before turning south to Pheriche landing. Then to Hotel Everest View to Lukla airport to Kathmandu. On flight is slightly over 4 hours whilst on land at Lukla, Kala Phattar, Pheriche and Hotel Everest View is slightly over 1 hour. We encountered a bit of turbulence, which is expected. Part 3 would be the view of Everest and there is also another bonus part - WIP.

[@nishanthaarachchi3335]

How long staying at ebc

[@ZakTravelVLog]

It will only pass EBC. There is the EBC at the lowest level and then EBC 1-4. I don't think they allow to land. It is meant for hikers. I watch all the Everest Rescue TV series that came out in 2017-18 and I never heard tour can land at EBC.

Looks like a mountain... I think elevation its very hard to show in videos.

[@ZakTravelVLog]

Yup. Imagine the height of Mt Everest is 10x the height of Burj Khalifa. Imagine in and around Khumbu valley there are over 30 mountains, 13 of them is over 6,000m. Some of the mountains are behind other mountains. From Lukla to Everest Base Camp which is 50km, you can view mountains after mountains, left, right, and front.

[@Cougar1212]

A five hour flight? I don't think so.

[@ZakTravelVLog]

The helicopter private tour I booked was 5-6 hours stopover at Lukla, Periche, Kala Patthar and breakfast at Hotel Everest View. About 4.5 hours on-board minus the 90 minutes stopovers. There are other variations and price ranges. Check it out with any tour operator websites for bookings.

What a waste of fuel and pouring out of polluted engine exhaust. A drone would have taken better videos without the interference of helicopter blades.

[@ZakTravelVLog]

On the hindsight, the drone will have the experience, not you. Sure, drone would be awesome IF one has something like $30,000 to S100,000; seasoned mountaineer in good health and has the time to hike Everest or any of the other surrounding mountains. Subscribe to my channel then I can buy expensive drones 😊 Flying drone is regulated. Many countries (point of entry) impose permit requirement when bringing drone. Nepal impose permit at every municipality you intend to fly the drone. DJI Mavic 3 combo ($4,500) can fly 30km (Lukla airport to Everest is at least 80km return). A 1TB SDXC card ($350) storage 3+ hours 4K 60 fps but battery can last 1.5 hours. No punt intended; this is not the channel to be opinionated on political agenda.

Bahaha a polluted engine... stfu

who cares...
