Anybody interested in trekking a 6000+ metres peak in Nepal in March 2012?

Hi, if you're keen and have some trekking experience, perhaps we can form a group to go together. It's more economical this way.

I'm keen on MERA peak (6654m), which will take about 25days (from SG and back) and about SGD4000 (including air tix).

I've been on Everest Base Camp/Kala Pattar/Gokyo (22 days) in April this year and on Kilimanjaro in August.

PM me or reply to this thread.

That is Lukla Airport right? The main airport Tribhuvan is alright.

Ive been to Nepal 5 time climbing peaks < 6000-7000m.... who you planning on organizing the trek / climb ?

KTM Airport is totally safe

Lukla airport is like a roller coaster at Uni Studios.... FUN

prefer June/nov-dec

FYI - You have to get the seasons right..... as such the SEPT - NOV time would be best. ( that said the clearer weather in the Everest Region is APR - MAY ).

SEPT - NOV will still be ok though.

Hi, I could ask my guide on the suggested itinerary or even recommended time to go there If u all are keen! Shall we meet up to discuss more on it?

Good luck to your trek and take care with the altitude!

I flew to Lukla 20 years ago and there was plane wreak lying beside the runway. It is also not a good sign when spectators clap whenever a plane land safely. Hope things have improved by now.
