Thanks to Alpenglow team member Ted Mahon and www.stuckintherockies.com for this great blog and pictures of the Dablam.
“It was October 18th, nine days after arriving to Nepal, that we finished our trek and made it to basecamp. What a spot. The looming west face of the mountain frames the backdrop for the camp and the huge hanging snowfield just below the summit, known as the ‘dablam’ (loosely translated- pendant or charm box), accents it further.
