August 31, 2007

The group has arrived at Sama village (by helicopter) which is at the base of Manaslu. I do not know the elevation at Sama village, but Keith did say they were higher than the summit of Mount Victoria at Lake Louise. They will stay there 2 days at a tea house to acclimatize, with some day hiking up the mountain. Keith says it's gorgeous and the people are very friendly. Apparently the group was over their weight limit for the helicopter ride, and some of their gear had to be left behind. The "gear" Keith was referring to was beer! Some poor sucker will be hauling it up the mountain on his back for them.....along with the goat for their supper.
