Trek Day 2: First Look

We left the Mt. Resort (8,600ft) and started our climb towards Namache (11,461ft). This hiking day took us across seven bridges. Tina triumphantly conquered here fear of bridges with the help from her team; Jeff and the Sarah Bear. After lunch we had our first look at Mt. Everest. Although a little obscured by clouds it seemed like the realization of a long dream. When we reached Namache we check in to the Moonlight Lodge where we enjoyed Yak steak for dinner. Our steak was accompanied by green beans (which were actually purple) and pom frites. Yak steak tastes a lot like Salibury steak, but chewier.
