Phakding Round 2

Written By Ashlyn Talbot

Back to the start!

Phakding is where our very first stop was when we started our EBC trek. They say Home is where the wifi connects… and everest bakery was ready to support; alongside a order of pizza bread, cinnamon rolls, doughnuts, and banana cake 😅.

Some of our favorite things we saw/ acquired during this portion of the trail were:

  • views of kongde /thamserku

  • meeting the author of “The cultural gift of nepal” and being able to buy a copy trailside.

This section is also where we exited sagarmatha national park - sagarmatha is the true name of mt everest.

Stats:

8.02 miles

981 ft gain

3,451 Ft loss

11,245 max elevation

Just a weirdy getting into shenanigans. May, or may not, lead a cult.
