Nepal treks are closed right now for COVID-19.
But that doesn’t mean you can’t trek to EBC in your own home.

I was planning on making this trek August 2020 …
… not much chance it’s going to happen this year. #COVID-19
was there in 2019:
My 14-day K2 base camp trek in Karakoram mountains of #Pakistan, followed by a crossing of the technical Gondogoro La Pass.
At 8,611m (28,251ft), #K2 is the second highest mountain in the world.
The K2 base camp trek route is via Concordia, the confluence of the Baltoro and Godwin-Austen glaciers at around 4,700m (15,419ft).
It is one of the few places in the world where you can see four 8,000m peaks: K2, Broad Peak, Gasherbrum I and Gasherbrum II.

I’m researching a possible independent trek to Makalu Base Camp, Nepal for November 2020, the 5th highest mountain in the world. (8,485m)
Since 2016 at least there have been simple teahouses and meals of dal bhat all the way up.
I’d carry a tent and food, as well, just in case.
Not many hikers are choosing this destination in Nepal yet. And very few are doing it independently, so far.
