Day 7: Tengboche to Pheriche

  • Starting Elevation: 3,870m  12,664 feet
  • Ending Elevation: 4,371m  14,340feet
  • Distance: 12km
  • Temp: 25F
  • Oxygen: 53% of sealevel

Pheriche is officially high altitude and the oxygen levels are low but my body is still feeling strong.  Even though I started the journey recovering from a wicked cold and cough my body is doing well.  This is the last spot I will have internet for a while as the next few nights are camping in tents.  The temperature at base camp is currently a high of 13F and a low of 7F. The clear skies are beautiful but do make for cold nights.
