My Everest base camp trek from Lukla to Mount Everest Base camp and then to Kalapattar at about 5546 meters. The trek was pretty challenging. It was spanning for about 13 days (1.e from April 3rd to April 15th 2011 (Both days included). Flew from Kathmandu to Lukla via Agni Air . As usual the flight was delayed by a couple of hour and added to that we were stuck in an air bubble and the flight staggered a bit (It was fun to have a roller coaster ride close to Himalayas). I landed in Lukla and with the help of a guide we started our trek after a cup of Tea in a nearby Tea house. My first stop was Phakding about 3 hrs trek from Lukla and it was at 2620 meters. The trek was very scenic, but the path was tough. We stayed overnight at Phakding and then proceeded to Namche Bazaar, which is close to 3400 mts, This trek took me about 7 hrs and was quite challenging as I encountered heavy snow showers and the path was pretty slippery. Reached Namche Bazaar at 4 pm and had a cup of tea and stayed there for a couple of days (purpose of acclimatization), then proceed further to Phortse , Periche ..... and Gorakshop, before reaching Kalapattar. I would be happy to share further inputs for anyone interested http://www.nepalguideinfo.com/everest-base-camp-trek/
