It's all go!

Welcome to the blog. At the end of March, Ben Dare, Mike Rowe and Steven Fortune are travelling to Nepal and starting our adventure.We are going  to try and climb new routes up 2 peaks in the Khumbu region: Kyajo Ri and Kusum Kanguru. This blog is an effort to share a bit about our adventures and hopefully inspire you to have your own! We will write a bit about the area, peaks and routes we want to climb, our preparations before we leave, some news when we have a chance to send it from Nepal, and some stories and photos from when we return.

This is all an effort to share information, so if you have any comments or questions, please do so by commenting after a post or emailing using the link on the side. Or if you have some useful info or ideas for us, please share as well. If there is something in particular you want us to post about, get in touch.

The reason this is happening is the generous support of Sport and Recreation New Zealand, who have awarded us a Hillary Grant, and the New Zealand Alpine Club who have awarded us an expedition grant. I ClimbIcebreaker and  Leppin Sport are helping out with gear and nutritional supplements.
Thanks a lot for helping us have this amazing opportunity!
