On Day 2 of the trek “A Woman’s Journey: Destination Mount Everest,” climbers crossed one of the rivers to make their way to Namche Bazaar (3,440 meters). The climbers reached there after eight hours of trekking. “It was tough, but worth the effort! We are literally sitting on the clouds! We will be spending a night and a day (Thursday) here for acclimatization,” said Hasna’a Mokhtar, one of the climbers. — Exclusive photos for Saudi Gazette
