Episode 35: Erin - Everest Base Camp Part 2- Towering Peaks to Tragedy on the Trail

The Himalayas are daunting, from the flight landing into Lukla, a city perched on cliffs, to the hanging glaciers of Ama Dablan. Erin and Emily share Part 2 of their Everest Base Camp Trek in 2004. They describe the awesome magesty of the mountains and the kind and tough Nepali people. All was well until their crew hit 15,000 ft, then tragedy struck.
