Richard Boardley to Everest Base Camp
My Donations to date: £1735
Fundraiser(s): Sherpa Heritage House Appeal
Event: Everest Base Camp trek
Event Date: 17th October 2008
Charitie(s) Supported: Community Action Nepal
I achieve, hopefully, a decades-old dream of seeing Everest close up! Meanwhile, the culture of the Sherpa people, without whom no Everest attempts would have been possible, is rapidly disappearing. Prince Charles, Sir Chris Bonington and Doug Scott are helping the most famous living mountaineering Sherpa, Pertemba, in an initiative to capture what is left of that culture in a museum in Khumjung. I am trekking to help them with that, and would be really grateful if you could help too!
