OMG!!! Best vlog ever on your channel. Thank you for taking us along, you and megan smashed it. Can't imagine how much fun and satisfying it was for you guys, fantastic job, love your channel.
literally speechless this is great and to have been able to do it with your sister is absolutely amazing !! So happy for you two to have accomplished it and to have been their for each other 😍🤗
I did Everest base camp last year. It is such a special place and it is so lovely to see it all again! Thanks for posting this and made the effort to record ❣
Loved this video, Lucy. I spent 3 weeks in Nepal, in Kathmandu and doing the Annapurna trek. Such a beautiful country with so many amazing people. Really takes me back.
Thank you very much Lucy for sharing and showing your trip there and your experience, which is not possible for everyone! As a Swiss with many mountains at home, I have also experienced and done a few high alpine hikes, and I am impressed by your performance! Congratulations 👏🏼🙃👍🏼! Many people can never even begin to imagine some of what you did there and, above all, what you felt and experienced on your body and in your body if you haven't actually experienced it in real life! And as many people know, Lucy is in above-average shape and is an endurance athlete with very good fitness and excellently trained lungs! But as you can hear and see, even Lucy felt this very wrenching loss of oxygen at an altitude of around 5000-6000 meters of only around 50-40% oxygen! And now just imagine Lucy, she was far from being in the death zone, from 7000+ meters up to 8800+ meters how hard every step falls! Exactly, no one can imagine that who hasn't experienced or even done it themselves, that many people need a good 6-8 hours for the last 500-800 meters to the top of Mount Everest, which is absolutely insane and 🍌🍌🍌... a lot of them make it a little faster because the Sherpa pulls or pushes them up 🤫😉! But I find this performance really very impressive, because Lucy shows that she is really a tough, very in shape, great personality and woman!
phenomenal, you should be so proud of yourselves!! a bond between two sisters even more so reinforced, I always watch your videos but this one brought a tear to my eye!!
Aren’t the Sherpa just the most lovely people? I did an expedition to climb Ama Dablam in 2013 and had an incredible experience. Thanks for sharing your adventure with us!
Everest nerd here, this video was really fun to watch, and it was short yet informative. (Everest was the one on the left btw, Lhotse was the one directly ahead of you)
Great adventure! Also nice to see female adventures as you tube is over represented by male adventures IMO. I recently was in Bhutan and did the 10 day Jomolhari Trek. It was an awesome trek but I was so sad to see so much litter everywhere along the trail. Pop cans, beer cans, water bottles, potato chip bags, tea bags etc. Our group picked up what we could but we were quickly overwhelmed by the amount. I was glad to see the orange bags and everyone bringing garbage out. Bhutan could learn from this!
It's strange to imply that there are too many male adventurers. Everyone is free to hike, travel etc as they want. Encouraging more female ones seems very reasonable though, but it doesn't have to come at anyone else's expense.
I enjoyed the video, such a beautiful country. One point if I could, please show the maps for a longer time frame. I can hardly orient myself and they have zoomed away 😊.
Thank you so much for sharing your base camp experience! Would love to get the deets or a link to the white sunglasses you used on your trek. Looks like they fit your face well and had really good wind protection on the sides.
Thank you so much for the info, @@lottecn! I took a look at the Radars, but those look like the first set of glasses that you wore. I'm interested in your other pair. It looks like they might be the Clifdens, that you perhaps customized?
Porters carry up to "120 kg"? That can't be right ( 265 lbs ??? ) I know they are strong - but I imagine that the porters are normally carrying, maybe 50 kg. ( hopefully less )
Did you fly Kathmandu - Lukla??? I went on EBC in October and had to travel on a 5 hour drive to Ramechhap to fly to Lukla? I know that this has been the normal for the last year at minimum.
Yes it is, and this is the only way these people can live! It’s a tricky one. Otherwise it’s helicopter and this is far too expensive for most villages up the route. I think you have to visit to understand the living conditions for it to make more sense
😂😂 so Everest base camp is now something to brag about . Omg people are such desperate attention seekers these days. Didnt even bother watching because really who gives a toss. Get jobs ffs 😂
