Everest Base Camp By Car? WTF????
My wife and myself actually signed up ten years ago for a HIKE up to and beyond EBC...as a "wilderness medicine" CME for her and photo journey for me - but we ended up buying a house instead. Great house, great deal...so a better choice for us - and although we have lots of hiking/climbing under our belts, we are starting to slow up just a bit as we approach our late 60's.
Years ago, during my first ever photo-assignment as a 15 year old documenting the Dartmouth Winter Outward Bound program...I had been inspired by Willi Unsoeld (one of the instructors) who'd captivated us with stories of his exploits on Everest - including his pioneering feat (with his friend Dr. Tom Hornbein) of tackling Everest's West Ridge.
But now...EBC by car? And what's next...a cable car to the summit of Everest?
