An end and a new beginning for EKP

Friends, we have exciting news! We've been away from EKP for a bit because we've been developing an all new site. Well, that site is ready and we strongly encourage you all to jump on over to continue to enjoy our blog and The Nepal Chronicles.
Beginning today, www.ekpadventures.com will direct you to our new site. Those of you using the old blogger address (www.expeditionkalapatthar.blogspot.com) will continue to come here for a couple more weeks.
Our new site has a slicker look, with some easier to use tabs to help you find information about us, some of your favorite features or about The Nepal Chronicles. Take a look and tell us what you think.
Also, the new site makes following the adventure easier as it features a user-friendly subscription feature. Just punch in your email address, and you'll get an email asking you to confirm your subscription. Say yes, and you're in. Now every time there's a new post at EKP, you'll get an email notifying you to stop by and have a look!
We'll have the conclusion of The Nepal Chronicles, the return of Bizarre Snacks and much more as we look toward 2012 and many more adventures. Thanks for sticking with us, and we hope to see you at our new site: www.ekpadventures.com

World's highest webcam set up on Kala Patthar

Our view from Kala
Some news we found interesting was that a German company in conjunction with the National Research Council has set up an Everest Web Cam from atop Kala Patthar, the mountain we climbed last year. On a clear day, the images of Everest are pretty amazing. The cam is updated every five minutes.
Pretty neat to see Everest from the view that we had... good, cold memories!

You can check out a story on the webcam here: http://www.physorg.com/news/2011-10-world-highest-webcam-everest-internet.html
