Ama Dablam Base Camp (4,600 metres).

Taking advantage of our acclimatization we visited this Base camp.

Who Knows!, maybe one day I will try out to climb it.

If you pay attention to the poster on the yellow tent, you might see an advertisement of famous company: Seven Summit Treks. It's a great trek company to climb up the highest mountains around the world.

Pangboche. We stayed this side of the river and made our way up the right hand side ridgeline toward our camp at around 4300m. From there we visited Ama Dablam base camp. Everest just peaking (haha) out from behind Nuptse.

Base camp for climbers attempting Lobuche peak. Some Everest climbers will use Lobuche to acclimatise in order to minimise their time spent traversing through the Khumbu icefall

Ama Dablam seen from the top of Dhokla pass, where numerous memorials are placed for climbers lost on Everest. Many are for Sherpa and most unnamed. As you continue across the plateau, it opens out and more and more cairns are visible.
