This is by far the best independent mini documentary video I ever seen. I learn so much from this video and feels intrigued seeing the beautiful scenic mountain landscape... It's just amazing. I wish I can also going there one day especially to the base camp besides experiecing the villages, the people and the culture... Thanks for sharing..❤️💯👍
Thank you so much for your support and message- If actually pinned your comment as I means so much. Hope you can subscribe am off to Kilimanjaro in September for another epic adventure!
At minute 45: While you are saying "it has been the hardest day of my life", a sherpa with a heavy load passes without even breathing heavily. What amazing people.
Actually funny you should say that I did respond to him walking by on camera literally at that second my radio mic died ! - It’s something I thought about in the edit afterwards, but you’re right, they truly are incredible people ! Hope you enjoyed the film. If you can, please subscribe it means a lot!
I'd imagine the Sherpas have evolved a better way of getting oxygen out of thin air than people who live at a few metres above Sea level! I live 11 metres above sea level, so would really struggle at altitude.
If a big man lifts more than a small girl he isnt amazing, he just has a natural physical advantage. Im sure the video guy could do the same thing at sea level as the sherpa does at altitude. Sherpa have an extreme measurable physical advantage in obtaining and using oxygen. It's not different than NBA players jumping high because they are naturally freakishly tall. It's a man with natural advantages doing his work. There are so many amazing things about sherpa and their culture, religion, work ethic, kinship bonds, etc but simply having a natural physical advantage, on its own, does not denote extra effort, courage or will. I guess if its really your first time seeing this that's fair enough reaction. But on these type videos people often comment on sherpa athleticism as if it's character.
I am SO glad I did the Everest Trek in March 1979. Walked in from Lamsangu with my girlfriend carrying our own gear , No crowds, a much smaller Namche,....very few westerners above 4,000 meters.....NO hotels, just primitive lodges...cost about $3 a day max....We were advisedd not to go to Base Camp, as it was all then a pile of garbage. Instead we went up to Kala Pattar about 1500 feet above Base Camp. Roughly 18, 400 feet. A glorious view!
My hike to base camp 2 was brutal. I have never been so exhausted and sore!! We walked into the clouds, and when we came out of the clouds, headed to camp 2, there was a whole new mountain to climb. Pictures can't show just how beautiful it is up there!! I ended up with dysentery, so the rest of the climb was canceled. I am still thankful for the local people who help me. Almost a whole month before I recovered and the people who invited me to stay in there house were so patient. I couldn't stop pooping is an under statement of what I went through and ended up severely dehydrated. To this day I am thankful to be alive and thankful my trip was cut short.
Wow, what an incredible story… thank you for sharing and appreciate you taking time to watch… it’s moments of humanity that mean so much I have lots more adventures planned, hope you can subscribe
This was so beautiful and genuine! Thank you Kevin. ❤️ I'm blessed to have been in some of the places you showed in your video, as well as on the Indian side of the Himalayas. So much respect for the mountain and the ones who climb it! I remember my first experience (day 1) flying into Himalayas at only 3500 m altitude and having such a bad altitude sickness that I wished I was rather in labor than that. I told myself that if I didn't improve by next day I would fly out. Luckily I recovered by the next morning. Even more lucky (because I was not a trained one) I was the only one in our group who didn't have altitude sickness or even difficultly walking at 5000+ meters on that trip. My group felt better than me on day 1, but never good enough onwards. I suffered like a dog on day 1 but was a butterfly for the rest 2 weeks. I would never ever fly in without climatization first. I'd rather spend an extra week trekking or car driving instead of flying. The Indian side of the Himalayas look so similar to your video, and I found them easier to do than the Nepal side. You can reach 4500-5000+ meters in good shape, without much (if at all) prior training. You need to be healthy though. Like your friend and you on your trip, I so strongly believe that listening to your body is sooo important! It's not a sign of giving up. I didn't have to do it, again luckily, but I was always ready for it and at peace with it if it happened. Some of the worst accidents and life changing moments happen when we do not listen to and respect our bodies. I used to be one of those pushy ones in my 20s, not anymore in my 30s and 40s. It changed my health for the better, as well as the respect I have for nature, both outside and in ourselves. ❤️
I’ve never got the hype for Everest peaking, this seems far more enjoyable, interesting and rewarding. Experiencing and appreciating the landscape, history and culture, about really being in a place is what trekking/hiking/walking/climbing is all about! Not just rushing up for a boasting check-off to the point of endangerment, environmental damage and local exploitation. It’s been a dream of mine to hike the Himalayas since I saw Michael Palins doc as a little girl, drinking chai in the clouds!
Thank you so much for the intellectual and beautiful comment I’ve worked with Sir Michael Palin several times, and he was also president of the Royal geographical Society, of which I am a fellow He is an incredible human being ! Thank you so much for your support. I’ve lost my planed I hope you can subscribe
I went to puerto rico during the darkest part of this winter it was nice 89 degrees and sunny with rain . But what caught me off guard was they experienced a hurricane Maria and half of the shops were closed around the world the Himalayas people were suffering after a quake . The minute we left Florida the boats were all over the coast from large wave I wonder if there have been alot of unusual weather anomalies because it seems we cannot avoid the suffering of people around the world.
I really as I've got older would forsake the peak . For a peek at the infamous mountain that took the Swiss machine form us . If the world's greatest mountain climber failed on her I got no business even risking another person's life I would rather capture everest on a camera lens.
I don't get the disparaging of climbers. Most seasoned climbers experience and appreciate the landscape, history and culture and often spend plenty of time with locals. . Probably much more than a one-time trekker.
Just because you can climb something, doesn't mean that you must. On a very very much smaller scale I chose not to climb Uluru in Australia, and you know what... I still feel some of the reverence which the local people have for it.
What a totally awesome experience...being put in a position to want something but forced to physically submit to nature...it's a lesson in how small and fragile we all are. Great video...thanks for taking us along!!!!!
Just brilliant. The algorithms allowed me to find your channel and I’ve happily subscribed, liked & become one of your loyal first 1000 followers. Thoroughly enjoyed every moment and look forward to watching your other content. I’ve watched your Lincoln Hall production a few times. A moving and inspiring video of the human spirit. Rip Lincoln. Thank you for what you do & for allowing me to live vicariously through you. Tassie Australia 🙏
That’s such a beautiful comment ! Thank you so much for taking time to follow me. Lincoln was a special soul, I wasn’t expecting the emotional outpour when I got there, but the mountain just brought it all back x Your support is so much appreciated
Congrats on the film brave man. I still remember your sigh sounds after achieving these goals. What a beautiful journey and what do I miss that place. Happy to see you walking around there. Breathing heavily but it is always an accomplishment to reach that altitude. I love to go back there with you one day. Just to have a good time without pushing too much.
I did a trek in Bhutan in Oct/Nov 2023. 10 days and only a few hours of rain!!! The trek was called the Jomolhari Trek. We took the anti mountain sickness drug called Diamox. I started 2 days before ascending and had half a tablet in the morning and half a tablet at night. I had no problems with the altitude. We went over 2 passes at 5,000 meters. I highly recommend it as a preventative measure. During the 10 day trek we only saw 2 other individuals. Our guides were Bhutanese and were fantastic. No Bhutanese are allowed to carry loads. Ponies carry the gear and there is a limit on the amount they can carry. They also don't allow anyone to climb the high mountains (Jomolhari is over 8,000 meters) as they feel the mountains are sacred. I think they have learned from Nepals mistakes.
Such a raw film! And Thank you for highlighting the importance of our personal duty in protecting our planet so the next generation can also experience the pure majesty of these places!
Thank you so much for commenting ! I don’t think, Sir David Attenborough could’ve said it better than what you have just said 😊 Hope you can subscribe, I’ve got lots more to come !
Thank you very much for the very kind comment. This is just the start of my journey. Check out the 2000 subscriber video on my channel. It tells you what I’ve got planned for the future. Hope you can subscribe. Best wishes Kevin
Such a nice comment, I hear it quite a lot. I guess it’s the UA-cam algorithms that need to catch up and yes I’ve got a lot more planned!! thanks for your ongoing support
I will never see the Himalayas but they are a part of the nature around me that I love. I share the pain of the planet and the guilt of humanity. Thank you for this wonderful film.
This was amazing. Thankful for you sharing your journey. I often think about how different it was in the early 2000’s and how much I could’ve recorded everything but also thankful that I was able to enjoy a more simpler time. Thank you for sharing this beautiful experience and honoring the Sherpas’ legacy.
A good question! Yes, but after a week or so you loose the amount or red blood cells Check out 14 Peaks on Netflix! Hope you can subscribe Ive lots more planned!
@@MajoIngram Ok whatever. People have a hard time breathing at high altitude. The people who climb Everest use bottled oxygen. If a plane loses cabin pressure at 30,000 feet, oxygen masks drop and they have to descend to 10,000 or everyone will perish. I don't know what to tell you.
Sherpas are like reliable cars that can run for really long. The rest of us are like gas guzzlers that burn out fast. They aren’t more athletic at sea level, they just have a higher endurance at high altitudes
Thanks for sharing your trek with us. I live in Canada, we have lots of beautiful scenery here! Come visit the Canadian Rocky mountains, lots of hiking trails and lakes!
Canada at every level is a magical place to visit. Been many times. Its on my list to go back. But next adventure already booked is Kilimanjaro planned for September. Hope you can subscribe for that one
Thank you, Kevin, for giving us the opportunity to hike along with you. Inspiring and emotional! We should really appreciate what nature is telling us. Subscribed of course.
Thank you for making such a beautiful comment I’m actually literally as I speak exporting a new film about my tips when tracking to Everest base camp so glad you have subscribed I’ve got lots more adventures to come !
Thank you. As a photographer, I can only imagine the absolute beauty of Nepal, it's people and the surroundings you have so graciously shown the world. I can see myself being brought to tears in witnessing such staggering beauty. Being born in 1953, the same year that Everest was first climbed, I somehow feel a kinship to these magnificent mountains. It must be my Scottish/Irish heart that feels such things. Again, thank you so much for such a personal and inspiring vid.
Thank you for taking time to watch my film, and thank you for making such a gracious comment I too come from Scottish blood - my grandfather I think you might enjoy my documentary about the West Highland Way all on my channel or the Great Glen Way Either way (🤣) I’ve got a lot planned so I hope you can subscribe and share some more adventures
I am a former Backcountry backpacker the longest I was in was 2wk Eastern Sierra Nevada range. It was fantastic and I appreciate the beauty standing on the Cols. I cried walking out (I am a woman) . I didn't want to leave. My heart is still there. New subbie.
I didn’t appreciate the comment that Sir Edmund Hillary made about Mark Ingles, either. Everest, technology and society were different when he summited. I respect that he had cotton clothing and had to carry his own shit, make his own food, etc. You can’t really brag if you had 20 sherpas carrying your bags, while using oxygen and having sherpas make you food and speaking English so you don’t have to learn even basic Sherpa (language). that's like getting under a 98 on an open book test. 😂
My physician, who is not in the best shape himself, took his wife and two kids on this trip. The tour companies are turning what used to be a bucket-list event into a "summer holiday", where just about anyone and their dog is helped to reach the camp. So sad!
What a lovely 56 minutes - and an excellent edit, thank you. I love your appreciation and respect for the Sherpa people - and even for the differentiation and who they actually are : ) Rinzin's smile lights up even in that bright sunshine. But his brief moments of sadness are also etched on his face when he speaks of dark times - he's very expressive. Altitude is no joke, but I do love Nepal - and her best asset are her people❤ Thank you for a beautiful film..❤ PS: - I wonder if Rinzin showed you the garbage and effluent pits at Gorak Shep? They are hidden just of the trail behind a couple of hills. The tons of bagged up garbage from Base Camp, and all of the human effluent that collects in the blue barrels are all hauled away on the backs of the Yaks to Gorak Shep where it is dumped. The problem with that is that DECADES of garbage and effluent are known to be leeching into the main water source of the Khumbu Valley ... so millions of people downstream are at high risk from the resultant contamination. In such a magnificent part of the world, I find this utterly disgusting ... but what else can be done? The Khumbu Valley would be drastically poorer without the tourism - every township along the trail live on that money for the rest of the year! But it's impossible to haul the refuse any further from Base Camp (and a small amount also comes down from further up the mountain when the clean-up crews bring it down - but very few climbers bother to claim the $4,000 refundable portion of their $15,000 climbing permit fee (yes, the fee increased from $11k to $15k in 2024) by bringing down their allotted 8kg of rubbish. There are no 'garbage police' on Everest to make them do this - and they just don't care about $4k refund when their climb is definitely over. They just want to get the hell off the mountain - and many will leave on the very next chopper out to Lukla or Kathmandu).. But this can't continue on such a large scale - with up to 1000 people each season coming and going at Base Camp for 6-8 weeks at a time .. that's a lot of garbage and a lot of human effluent to be hauled away and added to the pits ... and alreaady the pits aren't coping. I just wondered if Rinzin discussed that situation with you at all? Because I don't think I'm alone in wanting to know what he might have said about this problem or what ideas he, as a local, might have to suggest? Thank you again : )
Thank you for taking time to comment ! Actually, we were very lucky we almost saw zero rubbish along the trail and anything we did see we picked up - I found one AA battery, which got put in my pocket and recycled when back home
Great filmmaking. A must see for anyone wanting to do Everest Base Camp in the modern era of climate change. Great representation of the Sherpa People. #climatechange #everestbasecamp #gokyo #sherpa
Another brilliant and gripping addition to your growing channel Kevin. I’ve thoroughly enjoyed following you on your journey this evening. All the best.
Hiya Kevin. Thanks so much for sharing this film, I really enjoyed watching it. I spent a bit of time in Nepal in 2022, and I even have a video from time climbing Mera Peak, and I totally understand what you mean when you talk about feeling connected to Nepal, it's natural environment and the people. Being in Nepal felt like being coming home for me, it was the closest I've felt to truly feeling like myself. Thank you again for sharing this film, and I look forward to watching more of your adventures. Calum x
Hi Calum, really appreciate your comment and share passion for Nepal - I’ve already made enquiries about Mera !!! Stay tuned and there might be another Nepal film coming out soon !! PS you might like my bike parking adventure in Iceland also on my channel with a very powerful human story behind it
@@KevinAugelloNewEarthFilms I'll keep a look out. I'm hoping to get back to Nepal in the not-to-distant future also. You'll love MERA, I had a great time, and it was some feeling standing on that summit. ATB.
I really appreciated the “sting in the tail” and the honesty of your reaction to it. While I might trek in a rather different style, I certainly share many of your feelings about Nepal. I first went to Nepal overland from London in 1977. In 1980 I did my first Everest trek which in those days started at Lamasangu. It took 43 days there and back. I’ve now been five times to the Everest region (and many more times elsewhere), most recently in Spring 2023. I’ve always walked in and only flown out once - on this most recent trip because I had younger companions with me. We did the Three Passes loop which I’d last done in 2011 (Kongma La, Cho La and Renjo La) and obviously EBC, Kala Patthar and Gokyo Ri. On the Cho La I was astounded at the difference in the main and side glaciers in just 12 years. I was able to compare these differences afterwards with my own photos taken in almost exactly the same spots. My estimate was around 15-20m of ice loss. And this is at 5300m or so. Also the downs and ups on both big glacier crossings (to Lobuche and to Gokyo) are much more pronounced than before. One thing that you won’t have seen though is painfully obvious on the walk in from Jiri. And that’s the wholesale destruction of the forest due to road building. On my first descent from the Taksindu La (March 1980) the forest canopy was covered in Rhododendron flowers. There were Magnolia trees with huge white stars. There were Langur monkeys. There is now mostly open sky and the trunks of felled trees are scattered down the slope. Of course the road is only partially finished and this will likely lead to massive erosion before too many monsoons have passed. Further on near Bupsa the road is being blasted into the hillside and the resulting rock debris tipped over the side where it denudes the forest down to the valley floor. And part of the “benefit” of this road is the loss of the porter industry and later no doubt the mule train economy (as it has done in the Annapurna region). The road also makes it easier for people to leave. Younger ones to school and older ones to escape the harsh winters. I have seen the result of this in the Manang region. Houses falling into disrepair because there aren’t the people to maintain them. Also the loss of farming skills if kids are educated away from their homes in a city. It’s a difficult problem with no easy answers. What makes perfect sense at an individual level has catastrophic impacts at scale. Two points stood out from your doing this with a group (though I absolutely accept your rationale for doing it this way). The first was when you missed going up Gokyo Ri which I would rate more highly than Kala Patthar. Your decision not to go that day was wise. But because you were tied to a group schedule you couldn’t simply take a zero day and go up the next day. The second was that groups often (mostly?) go first to Gokyo and then over the Cho La from west to east. Some even do the Renjo La in that direction. For any number of reasons it makes far more sense to go East to West across all three passes. Specifically for the Cho La you can sleep overnight in Dzonglha from where it’s a much shorter climb to the pass with the sun on your back. You can then stop at Dragnag and tackle the glacier to Gokyo the following morning. I hope you get a chance to go back and walk some more on your own. One little correction I’d end with: Nepal is not a Buddhist country although the mountain regions certainly are. 80% are Hindu. Only 8% are Buddhist and 10% are a wide variety including Muslim and Christian. That said I can fully understand why one might have that impression. Says I sitting under strings of prayer flags at home here in Europe. Thanks for your thoughtful work.
Thank you for taking the time to comment in such an in-depth way ! I have so much planned for my channel it’s like a breath of fresh air Hope you can follow me on more adventures PS you also might like my Adventure in Iceland, when I bike packed around the island
Just subbed after watching about 15 minutes of this. I really like your humble and respectful take on things and your obvious joy of nature. Keep up the good work ❤
Thank you so much for your awesome comment ! I’ve got so much planned on my Channell I’m actually releasing a film today about it hope you can subscribe !
Thank you so much for taking time to comment !! I really appreciate I’ve got so much planned on my Channell I’m actually releasing a film today about it hope you can subscribe !
What a documentary, Kevin your passionate personality really shows in this video. A fantastic trip for you all , 1 questions how was your friend who got overwhelmed by altitude sickness’s? I do hope he is recovering well. See you on the next one ☝️
Thanks for your support in following me - and so kind to ask, he was sick for sometime even in Ktm. But he is good now. You can’t play Russian Roulette with altitude ! Am now planning the next one - had so many positive comments like yours it’s certainly gets the ball rolling !
I just spent most of the night watching the full climb from Lukla to Summit from a 19 yo Ryan Mitchell...i ve noticed not much snow there until camp 4...i felt like i climb that mountain myself this past night
Was happy to find your channel and subscribe. You are somewhere i wish to be but cannot be due to my health. I am only 56 but....still could not be wherevyou are. Its a joy to be able to watch. Thank You
Thank you !!! If you have time you might enjoy the bike packing film I made in Iceland for my channel. It’s about friendship but also overcoming adversity
What an excellent documentary, Kevin! I really enjoyed watching it. The first-person format gave me the feeling that I was actually there, hiking with you. I really liked the talking-head bits in between with extra background information. I really learned a lot! The Everest Base Camp climax was indeed shocking and I felt your emotion. It's extremely concerning and it's a very good thing that you're getting that story out there. Wishing you all the best with your future films and looking forward to seeing them!
Don’t forget we’ve just gone through several years of very high sun spot activity which has the same effect on melting ice and contributes more than anything else to the planets climate.
20 days accommodation nearly at the penthouse of the planet for $600 is actually laughably inexpensive. If you stayed in Sydney Australia in a hostel at a backpackers for 20 days in a 6 bed dorm during peak holiday season you'd be paying on average $1600 & you wouldn't be getting the pot of tea, the chocolate and a bog roll to be taking with you.
He said you probably pay 30 dollars a day MORE, on top of what you already paid for this trip. I looked it op (on the website of World Expeditions). It's about 2500 euros (because I'm in Europe it gives me the price in euros, but a dollar is not very different from a euro).
What a great journey and thank you for sharing it with us. I appreciate your point of view on the global warming and you have a way that made me feel like you were asking me personally, what am I doing to protect our planet. I am an avid backpacker but much prefer the Grand Canyon to Everest. Like some have said in earlier post that this journey seems like a more fulfilling trek than making the summit. Much respect to you and I did hit the subscribe button.
Thank you David for commenting and indeed watch - The Grand canyon would be an absolute dream ! You might also enjoy the bike packing film I made in Iceland (also on my channel) it’s a film about friendship, but with a very inspiring backstory
I have been to Nepal a number of times myself. I am now 77 and last went in 2016 to the Annapurnas also with World Expeditions whom I can also recommend. I have been to Gokyo and EBC twice and crossed the Cho La in both directions. The second time was in 2011 with Exodus whom I can also recommend. Crossing the Cho La is certainly tough however If you are up to it, then the extra three days to go to Gokyo I believe are well worth it. It is a shame you could not get to Gokyo Ri. I think the views of Everest are better than from Kala Pattar even though you are a bit further away. The other benefit of going to Gokyo as well, is that you do not retrace your steps as much on the return journey to Lukla. Your advice on acclimatisation is excellent. I have been pretty lucky in that respect. Always remember the Sherpa mantra "slowly, slowly". The lake at EBC was certainly not there when I last visited.
Having this comment from someone like yourself, is a real honour… thank you so much for your input and advice… being 77 years young, I hope your boots are ready for another adventure… stay safe and hope you can subscribe because I’ve got a lot more planned - Best wishes, Kevin
The best Everest view I had last october was from the Ngozumpa glacier aside of the fifth lake. There you can see Everest down to the South Col. Better than from Renjo La and from Gokyo Ri.
Thank you for this opportunity to see and experience your point of view of Everest base camp 2. I feel we see and hear so much more about base camp 1 that base camp 2 isn’t seen often and the visual of the global warming impact is profound for a place you know should be cold enough to maintain ice at all times. Thank you for sharing your friend Mr. Hall, Sherpa Rensing and your friend who got ill and turned back down to lower elevation’s story of the mountain; a place I’ll never go physically but appreciate.
I worked a summer in Colorado a few years ago. It was outdoor work, and moderately strenuous. Depending on where I was working, the elevation was, on average around 4000 meters. Coming from a low elevation, for me it was like having asthima. By midday I completely exhausted, and wheezing for breath that sometimes I just couldn't catch. I kept an oxygen breather on hand if I needed a little boost and that helped a lot. I can't even comprehend how hard it would be adding on another 1000 meters of elevation to be where you were, let alone the 8,000 required to summit some of these places. Crazy. When that summer ended, and I came home, I felt like an elite athlete for about 6 months. I was virtually tireless. It was awesome. And short lived. 😀
Thank you for the interesting comment ! - A beautiful place Colorado ! I hope you enjoyed my film. I have lots more adventures to come. Hope you can subscribe
Truly beautiful film, you have very humble and kind spirit and it really translates through film and makes it even better and sincere. Thank you, love from Finland
Thank you for the beautiful comment - I think it will really enjoy the film I did in Iceland when I bike packed around the island with a friend who overcame a life changing trauma It’s on my channel Hope you can subscribe I have lots more adventures to come - fantastic to have someone from 🇫🇮
The sherpas are like that naturally due to thousands of years of evolution of living at a high altitude and, due to no roads, their ancestors always had to carry their supplies.
Stunning. 🤭 Truly. Makes me miss my hiking in the Cascade Mountains in Washington. I need to get back to that...to the crunch of a path beneath my feet, mountains in the sky. The Himalayas are astounding, and the people gems. Great documentary.
Deuteronomy 11:16 KJV Take heed to yourselves, that your heart be not deceived, and ye turn aside, and serve other gods, and worship them; 2 Timothy 3:13 KJV But evil men and seducers shall wax worse and worse, deceiving, and being deceived. lets analyse the lies through which are we daily deceived: lie: schools are of use (fact. schools keep slavery alive and stands for dumbing down the population of mankind) lie: moon and mars landings, (fact: even masons know they cannot leave - earth is closed system, unless you want to drown, there is no other place created for us to live in.) lie: news channels share truth (fact: these are for politic propaganda) lie: voting matters (fact: politic propaganda) lie: money has a value of its own (fact: it is just a tool of this world, which value has been agreed upon world wide, it should be not loved, only used as needed.) lie: NASA lies (globe and all....) (fact: NASA stands for TO DECEIVE and 2 members expose their own lies, one is still alive, the other (Wernher Von Braun) place a clear clue on his own gravestone) - you havn´t searched - have you? lie: the lgbtq++++ propaganda (fact: it is a part of masonry depopulation agenda, 500 000 000 souls, thats their goal - Georgia Guidestones! - who said it be worthy to forget?) lie: Evolution and the dinosaurs. (fact: mankind is not hybrid kind) to keep stating that there was an evolution, then we ain´t humans, we aint then mankind, we are then hybrids. Are you a hybrid? Lie: holidays (xmas, Halloween, new year eve and so on) (fact: PAGAN HOLIDAYS, to praise BAAL, the god of this world) lie: U.F.Os (fact: they are demons/evil spirits in high places, against whom we fight daily = spiritual warfare) lie: rules and laws rule the world (fact: signs and symbols of masonry do) lie: believe in being educated (fact: found daily living with the lack of knowledge) lie: religions are ways to heaven (fact: JESUS CHRIST is only way to heaven. Religions, no matter its name = masonic garbage) lie: our dead loved ones stay around to “ghost” (fact: hunting and ghosting is job of demons, not of humans. We, humans, come from GOD and return back to HIM and all the stories of having been seen a ghost - terrifying, scary, dark, cold - again no job of analysing been done here by you- right?) Lie: Humans have no immune system and we need vaccines as these save lives (fact: humans HAVE IMMUNE SYSTEM and vaccines are created for one or two purpose: to kill or to cripple. If you took all their poison shots then later in life comes all kinds of medical diagnoses = vaccines crippled you - remember that) lie: there is no GOD (fact: There is GOD, who redeems sinners and created us directly from the dust of the earth: Psalms 139:14 (KJV) I will praise thee; for I am fearfully and wonderfully made: marvellous are thy works; and that my soul knoweth right well.) to keep claiming that there is no GOD and we aint created directly from the dust of the earth, we soon run out logic, regardless to we place “evolution” in our claims or not and our dead, whats happening to them as they sleep in their graves? - they decay away, becoming the dust form which they were taken, if it ain`t so then we are simply reality deniers. lie: 911 was terror attack (fact: 911 was an inside job, meaning the work of your loved government) lie: TV watching is of use (fact: television (TV) = tell a lie vision, a weapon for our minds, keeping it under MK ULTRA) half lie/half truth: earth is a stage where everyone plays rolls (fact: earth is stage, a freemasonry checkerboard, where both side, black and white are masons and humans both in politics and regular souls = the naive public gets daily played) lie: children are government to raise (fact: children are parents to raise, it takes 2 to make them, it takes 2 to raise them). Lie: we live already in the matrix (fact: we live since birth in BABYLON which is to become “matrix” as Man - us, must merge with machine aka take the mark of the beast and then matrix aka false reality becomes to be 100%) lie: humans are not intelligent enough (fact: it is forgotten fact, we all are intelligent, many have suffered the illness from this world, being indoctrinated by masons, cause who give us the school system which we have? masons did, because they need slaves). Lie: love is low standard and = lust (fact love is high standard as love means> John 15:13 Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.

Good documentary film. Like how you cover each section of the hike independantly with interviews, scene shots and explanations, all very interesting and truthful. Glad you made it and didn't have to turn back.
I'm sympathetic to your emotion over the loss of the original base camp. It must have been a shock. I hope that you find more joy in the rememberance of your trek when you understand that it is the SUN and the natural climate cycles of planet Earth that is causing the warming. We've been warming since the last ice age. Glaciers have been retreating more rapidly because of solar dynamics. It is just the times we are in.
You’re absolutely right, I’m also a trained geologist - global temperatures have been changing for billions of years. At one point, we were called snowball earth with ice, even at the equator. Other times, they were no ice at all, even at the poles. But it’s what we have been doing for the last 250 years with the release of captured carbon. That is the real concern, if we don’t change our way collectively. We are all the problem ,we are all the solution. Including me. I hope you liked the film lots more to come would be great if you can subscribe
@@KevinAugelloNewEarthFilms Consider it done! Thank you for responding. I agree that our carbon emissions may have sped up the process and we need to change our ways. If we suddenly did, and stopped all carbon emissions right now, do you believe it would slow the cycle down enough to make a difference in the end? I wonder if we have been blaming ourselves for the warming needlessly when it was coming all along. Is that too left field? I am interested in hearing your thoughts on the matter, if you please. Cheers, and yes, I loved the video. All things Everest fascinate me. What beauty in the people and the surroundings. Cannot be beat.
@@KevinAugelloNewEarthFilms It is not the carbon emission, which increases the temperature. It is the temperature increase, wich leads to an increase in carbon dioxide in the atmosphere with a time lag of about 500 years. Raw data are just so much for informative than IPCC publications... !
Thank you so much, it’s comments like this that drive me ! - I made a film about bike packing around Iceland. It was entirely shot on iPhone, but was driven by a real personal story over adversity It’s on my channel, I think you might appreciate it Hope you can subscribe, I’ve got tons more planned Once again, thanks for the comment
I watched your WHW film and loved the way you told it ,this however is also amazing superbly told and you can see your passion and love for Nepal thankyou for a truly wonderful piece of film 👏👏🤩
Thank you so much for watching and taking time to leave a comment ! Lots more plans, including an expedition to Kilamanjaro later this year Hope you can subscribe
Kevin. Another truly beautiful film. Your sincerity, knowledge and emotions really make your films on another level, bonus that you’re a fantastic film maker of course. Thank you for this one, it’s inspiring and devastating. Hannah x
@@suzicroxford6893 arrr thanks so much- ironically this time last week I was returning from Kilamanjaro that Film will be out on my channel soon. Hope you can subscribe and follow more of my adventures. Your support is really appreciated.
I'm sure a lot of people don't feel the way I do about Sir Edmund Hillary but to me he is tainted in my eyes because of what he said about Mark Inglis and the David Sharp controversy as when you're at 8500 meters and a double amputee I find it hard to say that Mark Inglis should have been responsible for saving David Sharp. If you're in the death zone on Everest it's hard enough to save yourself let alone another person and being a double amputee I feel if you want to criticize others maybe you have a point but not someone that is a double amputee in the death zone. I know also that Sir Edmund Hillary was also an old man but again he has been tainted in my eyes. Others can idolize him if they want but not me...
Funnily enough, I totally agree with you - we filmed Hilary for a documentary titled Miracle on Everest - he certainly wasn’t impressed with the popularity of his beloved mountain - I understand that, but unfortunately it has become the way of the world, and no one has the individual right to deny someone of their dreams. I really appreciate your educated comment. I had a lot of odd comments regarding the climatic change in the Himalayas. Some of them are utterly ignorant. Blaming the likes of Elon Musk ?!? I’ve got lots more adventures planned, Bruce I hope you can subscribe . Once again, thanks for your comment. PS I met both Mark and David on my 2006 expedition
@@garymitchell5899 A person can have an opinion on a matter whether or not their personal experience mirrors that of the person on who they express their opinion. By your measure, only a serial killer has the right to express an opinion on that subject. Only a former president has the right to express an opinion on a sitting president. I don't think that you have followed in the footsteps of Bruce. So, by your rules, you shouldn't have the right to comment on his opinion.
@@cwavt8849 I totally agree. Sir Edmund was commenting on what should and shouldn't be done at the summit, and he has actually been to the summit. The first, in fact. As far as I know Bruce hasn't, which is why I asked him. Thank you for backing me up. Do you think Bruce will reply?
He made an accurate statement concerning the microcosm of humanity as a whole I certainly don’t think that he was correct in saying that Mark Ingles alone should have been wound up there to see people. You can’t save anyone not even yourself when you’re in something called death sudden you don’t need to be on that mountain or even go to that mountain to have enough common sense to know that that just doesn’t work. At the very least he could’ve at least called out the other 29+ people also walked past these people and did nothing.
After being in Nepal last month, I can only say that it was one of the greatest experiences of my life. Unfortunately, bad weather left us stranded in Ramechhap for 4 days, so we had to re-plan our entire tour. But it was still just fantastic, it was particularly beautiful to see Changtse, Everest and Nuptse lit up in red and gold at sunset from the summit of Kala Patthar, even if it was very physically challenging. Especially the "last" day, because we couldn't fly out of Lukla due to the weather and had to walk and return to Kathmandu by jeep. 23 hours of pure suffering. ;-) I can also agree with your list of 10 tips, it is absolutely accurate. I would be delighted to hear news of your current project soon. Best wishes.
@@olligle6866 thanks so much for taking time to comment coming soon on my channel is also an adventure to Kilamanjaro. Hope you can watch that one too. Sounds like you had a hell of an adventure!!
I like your way of visiting that area, Sir. For me you stand in the tradition of Messner, Kammerlander, Schlegel e.g.: Dicovering the landscape, its people and myths as well. The great Sagas about summit-dramas are told... your spirit is different :) Thanks a lot !
Hi Kevin, I have been looking forward to your film and have just finished watching. Honestly, I am a little lost for words as I shared your emotions on reaching base camp with you through the film. I have watched all of your UA-cam films and really appreciate your honesty and the outstanding quality you reproduce. Thank you 🙂 P.s Are you still planning on walking Cape Wrath trail ?
Cheers Eddie ! Lots more coming including Kilimanjaro You will also definitely like the film I did with a friend when we are parked around Iceland - it already on my channel
100%, but not only that they are just incredibly nice people - full stop- Hope you enjoyed the film I’ve lost more to come. I hope you can subscribe and follow more adventures.
Thanks so much. So many happy memories. I too, was sad to see the new lake at EBC. It wasn't there in 2012. I climbed Chola Pass in snow and ice plus a white out thrown in for extra excitement. I am sorry you did not get to do Gorkio Ri, but understand your reasoning. My second visit to EBC ended at Gorak Shep where a helicopter collected me for a few days in Kathmandu hospital due to a case of pneumonia. Despite this set back I would dearly love to return to Nepal and especially the Khumba Valley. Safe trekking everyone.
Really appreciate you taking time and taking time to comment ! I’ve lots more Adventures is coming so I hope you can subscribe it would really mean a lot !

- this is true, there is a massive carbon footprint and everything we do in life. Which is why for 20 years I haven’t eaten meat, for the meat industry is the biggest producer of greenhouse gases Especially methane about 30% - aviation on the other hand is 2%, which is still a problem I agree My house is completely off grid using solar - I don’t own a car I travel everywhere by bicycle or train where possible But I’m still part of the problem - we all need to find solutions. There is no quick fix, but sticking our heads in the sand is an affix either - stay safe my friend
Oh. This is sad. One watches a great documentary, only to arrive at the comments section to find a discussion of a fairytale, passed off as real. Speaking from an apolitical standpoint, yes, the earth is in rotten shape and the filmmaker is doing his part to combat that in his daily life. Wonderful! As long as people believe in fairytales though, nothing whatsoever will change... besides the amount of money in some people's /corporations' pocketbooks. One would prefer not to have to speak euphemistically, using words such as "fairytale", but the censors demand it. The documentary itself was wonderful and much appreciated!!
Hi Roger, thank you so much that comment really is so kind ! I’m a professional filmmaker anyway, but I’m going to put all my energy now into UA-cam instead of working for broadcasters - I want to generate content that inspires others
Well actually I do… I’m actually also a qualified geologist. There are many factors that contribute towards glacial melting. Position of Earth in relation to the Sun, volcanic activity on the planet etc etc - but there is a direct correlation between the carbon omissions in the last 250 years and global trends in the natural world. Glaicers across the planet are in rapid decline. This lake appeared in six years, which in geological time is nanosecond - is this directly linked to human activity impossible to give a black and white answer, but we certainly haven’t helped ! B
@@KevinAugelloNewEarthFilms You're probably familiar with this video if you're a geologist. ua-cam.com/video/LmmmgiPha_Y/v-deo.html. Our earth has been around about 4.5 billion years, temperatures fluctuate, look at the dinosaurs. That's life. Yes humans have accelerated the temperatures, look at the Romans early in 1CE the biggest polluters of the planet. We adapt, animals adapt or humans will find solutions or civilizations die out.
Super video.. brings back wonderful memories. I did Base Camp in 2017 when I was 57. Since then I have returned to Nepal 2 more times, most recently last year when I climbed Poon Hill in th Annapurnas... amazing country with amazing people
Fantastic Tracey, I’m glad you enjoyed ! I am planning a little trip to Mera Peak ! So lots more Himalayan adventures to come hope you can subscribe I know it’s a different country but check out the film I did in Iceland. When I cycled around it with a friend I get the feeling you might enjoy that one too !
Before I post this and cause an uproar I want to say that I really enjoyed this short film. Global warming has happened again and again and again on this planet. I'm not saying that we haven't had anything to do with it this time but the planet will cool down again and if it does that too fast then humanity will really have something to worry about. I'm not looking for a fight with anyone so there is no need to pick one with me. Randall Carlson and Graham Hancock have really made me do my own digging on this matter and what the mainstream propaganda machine is telling us isn't the truth. All those people still own most of the real estate on the coasts and the people that have lived on the ocean their entire lives have not seen any changes to speak of....

Thank you so much- Ive losts planned this year so glad you can join ! Also, check out the film I did in Iceland. I’ve cycled around the island with a friend… it has an incredible human story behind it.
$30 at a lodge is nothing. A beer at a concert in the states almost cost that much. I wouldnt go out of country thousands of miles away without plenty of money and emergency funds. That's expected. Everything has changed since 2020 on prices
Great video, thanks. I have never been there, but I DID used to like Austria, Germany; and the USSR as was. I share the disgust about litter and un-caring armature expeditions that never clean their waste and remains behind. I also agree with the bans imposed by Nepal, on the illegal route visitors. Especially the 10 year ones for the worst offenders. I'd make it for life. They put undue wear on the environment, with no regard to local Authorities. (Rant over) haha. I think you really put something of the spirit of trekking like this, and your guide was a diamond; a rare type of Guide, like some of those I found myself. I used to love camping and hiking myself in the Lake District and later,; all around Scotland, but after my back injuries, that's all in the past. Thanks again for a great video; excellent, and easy to follow delivery. (Subscribed). You were right to take that rest, to benefit later. It would make the visit more enjoyable; instead of a task to do. More please.
@@jackharrison6771 glad you enjoyed… however I can honestly say that during one month we almost didn’t see any rubbish and anything that we did we picked up hope you can subscribe. I’m off on my next adventure next week to Kilimanjaro
Love your channel. But as far as emotional over climate change? You promote people to come to Nepal and imagine all the people who now come from this video. Buying more gear and camera 🤳 etc that are all mined a stripped from the rainforest. Then you show us all the planes it takes to get there along with all the helicopters getting people up. These are the biggest pollutions in the world 🌎. So yes you can feel good about helping the community with tourism. But they survived way before tourism was there. So I get confused when people get upset when they are the ones pushing a bigger carbon footprint 👣 and then telling us who don't travel to feel bad 😞 Not hating on you. But little confused 🤔
What a great video. Probably best hiking video to EBC on youtube I watched. It brings me so much good memories! Your guide man! He reminds me so much of our group guide Birkas. I have gone same route through Gokyo Lakes last September with Evertrek agency, and we too didn´t get to climb Gokyori but not because of tiredness, but because of bad weather conditions, so I really feel u friend. The views must be absolutely amazing there on a good day! also that´s where some of our group members faced some more serious breathing problems during sleep, altitude does kick in hard at some point. Also half of the trip I battled with headaches but that´s the reality people, would come back there any given time tho! I feel same way about being connected there spiritually, Its a special place to be. I took some notes from your video, the first would be to use tents instead of tea houses wherever possible, as they absolutely can start feeling boring, monotonic and even noisy at bed time for those who are sensitive sleepers. Next time I would go, I would buy less showers and WIFI, you are absolutely right about the prices in tea houses, the further you go more the more expensive it gets. We drain quite some money in the end of the day using all these services and from our experience WIFI wont necessarily be good anyways. Glad I can relate to Chola Pass day, I almost mentally gave up when I started climbing as the hike to It had already drained me, and the hike to nearest tea house after - destroyed us haha! It really really is difficult to do in such high altitudes, but I learnt a lot and its a great achievement. What an emotional ending to this video too. We haven´t been told about the lake not meant to be there in EBC, glad you put that info in. And sorry about the friends you lost. Overall great work on this video! I personally took lots of videos and photographs throughout the trek of the area and my fellow hikers so would have loved to do some movie making for u!
Thank you for taking time to really comment - unfortunately it ended up in the ‘on hold bin’ I’ve had quite a few nasty comments accusing me of being a communist in reference to climate change !!! Anyway, glad you had an awesome experience in the past I hope you can relive Ive tons more planned on my channel … hope you can stay tuned and subscribe !
Please do your due diligence and research the reason for the glaciers melting!!! We are currently still in an ice age that began 2.5 million years ago, the Quaternary glaciation. We are in an interglacial period of the ice age which is a warming period. Please do your research. As a scientist it is alarming that people have no idea the planet has gone through many coolings and warmings. It is alarming that many people do not know we are in a warming period of the Quaternary Ice Age.
You’re absolutely right, I’m also a trained geologist Phd - global temperatures have been changing for billions of years. At one point, we were called snowball earth with ice, even at the equator. Other times, they were no ice at all, even at the poles. This was driven by the Earth’s position in relation to the Sun and the amount of volcanic activity driven by the movement of the tectonic plates. But it’s what we have been doing for the last 250 years with the release of captured carbon. Which acts as a blanket in our atmosphere. That is the real concern. There is also a delay about 50 years, 1.5 Celsius rise we are seeing globally now is correlated to carbon missions in the year I was born 1970 - it’s our children that will be feeling the consequences of what we’re doing today - the world will survive, but it’s more the consequence for biodiversity and that includes us - our children’s children we need to move away from a fossil carbon future and use science and technology to change and adapt to the way we live - We are all the problem, we are all the solution. Including me.
Carbon dioxide emissions have steadily been decreasing. The concept of Global warming was misrepresented and skewed based on corporate greed and corrupt lobbyist. The human contribution to CO2 emissions began centuries ago (Industrial Revolution) but we began turning that around decades ago. In time, given the work put in to lower the human footprint on the atmosphere, CO2 emissions will get quite low, however, we will not stop global warming due to the interglacial. @@KevinAugelloNewEarthFilms
I was enjoying iup until the 'global warming' indoctrination' Repeating what you hear doesn't mean you are well educated. It means you are well trained.
Just for reference, I’m actually also a qualify geologist having worked for British Antarctic Survey studing isotopes in the ice crystals and how our climate has been impacted in the last 250 years since we’ve been pumping out trillions of tons of carbon into the atmosphere - Just so you know
As some who stumbled across this video, it has been a wonderful watch. I will never get the chance to do that, so it has been amazing to watch you complete the hike. Thank you for filming your adventure and uploading it. You gained a new subscriber. It gives me something positive to watch while crafting! Keep at it!
That is such a beautiful comment thank you so so much !! I think he will also find my Adventure in Iceland when I cycled around the island a lot of fun - it has a very powerful human story behind If you have time have a look, it’s on my channel Thank you so much for subscribing and keep crafting ! x
New subscriber here! I've been binge watching all things Mt Everest and so far, your videos are my favorite! I'm from Texas and several years ago we went to Red River, New Mexico. The highest I've ever been in 13,500 ft. I can't imagine what it would be like up there! Thank you much for sharing this beautiful place!!
Really appreciate your support. Ironically I’m currently in a tent in Scotland making a new adventure. Lots more content to come, really appreciate your subscribe.
I did the trip to Leh and there's no way people can adjust to the altitude in a couple days. It really is an incredible experience but I would say to people plan to take your time. If you don't you'll get headaches, dizziness sleepless nights. Thanks for the wonderful video!
Thanks - this was brilliant - very real - you nearly had me blubbing...always wanted to go to Base Camp but crocked with arthritis after years of running/walking so will never make it, but this was the next best thing....all that was missing was some Scratch and Sniff to transport me there! Watched it twice as I couldn't remember if I'd seen or heard any birds.
I’m so glad you enjoyed my film it really does mean a lot - unfortunately we didn’t see much wildlife and I’ll let you into a little secret. Some of the birds you can actually hear are sound effects ! But nonetheless, it truly is a magical place. Hope you can subscribe because I have a lot more adventures to come.
I have always been amazed by Mt Everest. I have watched different documentaries regarding Mt Everest Summit successes and unfortunate tragedies . I may not get the chance to experience Nepal or see Everest, but seeing your mini Documentary gave me a glimpse into the beautiful scenery, history &the colourful prayer flags ( wind horses) Thank you so much 😊
A real pleasure - ironically at this exact moment I’m currently in Scotland making a new film for my channel. Hope you can subscribe hello from my tent !
@@KevinAugelloNewEarthFilms Hello from not so warm Sydney, Australia ,Thank you for you reply 😊 I have just subscribed to your Channel, and I look forward to seeing your new film. Hope you enjoy Scotland. Take Care 😊
This is by far the best independent mini documentary video I ever seen. I learn so much from this video and feels intrigued seeing the beautiful scenic mountain landscape... It's just amazing. I wish I can also going there one day especially to the base camp besides experiecing the villages, the people and the culture... Thanks for sharing..❤️💯👍
Thank you so much for your support and message- If actually pinned your comment as I means so much. Hope you can subscribe am off to Kilimanjaro in September for another epic adventure!
At minute 45: While you are saying "it has been the hardest day of my life", a sherpa with a heavy load passes without even breathing heavily. What amazing people.
Actually funny you should say that I did respond to him walking by on camera literally at that second my radio mic died ! - It’s something I thought about in the edit afterwards, but you’re right, they truly are incredible people !
Hope you enjoyed the film. If you can, please subscribe it means a lot!
Yes I noticed that too… buddy was trucking along like it was nothing…. while I am sure I would be sucking wind….
You'd be able to walk past carrying your own heavy load too, if you lived your whole life at that altitude
I'd imagine the Sherpas have evolved a better way of getting oxygen out of thin air than people who live at a few metres above Sea level! I live 11 metres above sea level, so would really struggle at altitude.
If a big man lifts more than a small girl he isnt amazing, he just has a natural physical advantage. Im sure the video guy could do the same thing at sea level as the sherpa does at altitude.
Sherpa have an extreme measurable physical advantage in obtaining and using oxygen. It's not different than NBA players jumping high because they are naturally freakishly tall. It's a man with natural advantages doing his work.
There are so many amazing things about sherpa and their culture, religion, work ethic, kinship bonds, etc but simply having a natural physical advantage, on its own, does not denote extra effort, courage or will.
I guess if its really your first time seeing this that's fair enough reaction. But on these type videos people often comment on sherpa athleticism as if it's character.
I am SO glad I did the Everest Trek in March 1979. Walked in from Lamsangu with my girlfriend carrying our own gear , No crowds, a much smaller Namche,....very few westerners above 4,000 meters.....NO hotels, just primitive lodges...cost about $3 a day max....We were advisedd not to go to Base Camp, as it was all then a pile of garbage. Instead we went up to Kala Pattar about 1500 feet above Base Camp. Roughly 18, 400 feet. A glorious view!
What a fascinating message - thank you so much
My wife and I did kala pattar in 2003 . Brilliant 3 weeks in Nepal .
Lovely people. Good memories.
Why was your girlfriend carrying your gear?
@@johnspivey4063 He said they were carrying their own, ie, she was carrying hers and he was carrying his.
My hike to base camp 2 was brutal. I have never been so exhausted and sore!! We walked into the clouds, and when we came out of the clouds, headed to camp 2, there was a whole new mountain to climb. Pictures can't show just how beautiful it is up there!! I ended up with dysentery, so the rest of the climb was canceled. I am still thankful for the local people who help me. Almost a whole month before I recovered and the people who invited me to stay in there house were so patient. I couldn't stop pooping is an under statement of what I went through and ended up severely dehydrated. To this day I am thankful to be alive and thankful my trip was cut short.
Wow, what an incredible story… thank you for sharing and appreciate you taking time to watch… it’s moments of humanity that mean so much
I have lots more adventures planned, hope you can subscribe
This was so beautiful and genuine! Thank you Kevin. ❤️ I'm blessed to have been in some of the places you showed in your video, as well as on the Indian side of the Himalayas. So much respect for the mountain and the ones who climb it! I remember my first experience (day 1) flying into Himalayas at only 3500 m altitude and having such a bad altitude sickness that I wished I was rather in labor than that. I told myself that if I didn't improve by next day I would fly out. Luckily I recovered by the next morning. Even more lucky (because I was not a trained one) I was the only one in our group who didn't have altitude sickness or even difficultly walking at 5000+ meters on that trip. My group felt better than me on day 1, but never good enough onwards. I suffered like a dog on day 1 but was a butterfly for the rest 2 weeks. I would never ever fly in without climatization first. I'd rather spend an extra week trekking or car driving instead of flying. The Indian side of the Himalayas look so similar to your video, and I found them easier to do than the Nepal side. You can reach 4500-5000+ meters in good shape, without much (if at all) prior training. You need to be healthy though. Like your friend and you on your trip, I so strongly believe that listening to your body is sooo important! It's not a sign of giving up. I didn't have to do it, again luckily, but I was always ready for it and at peace with it if it happened. Some of the worst accidents and life changing moments happen when we do not listen to and respect our bodies. I used to be one of those pushy ones in my 20s, not anymore in my 30s and 40s. It changed my health for the better, as well as the respect I have for nature, both outside and in ourselves. ❤️
Thank you for making such a beautiful comment. I’ve lots more adventures to come including a trip to Kilamanjaro.
I’ve never got the hype for Everest peaking, this seems far more enjoyable, interesting and rewarding. Experiencing and appreciating the landscape, history and culture, about really being in a place is what trekking/hiking/walking/climbing is all about! Not just rushing up for a boasting check-off to the point of endangerment, environmental damage and local exploitation. It’s been a dream of mine to hike the Himalayas since I saw Michael Palins doc as a little girl, drinking chai in the clouds!
Thank you so much for the intellectual and beautiful comment
I’ve worked with Sir Michael Palin several times, and he was also president of the Royal geographical Society, of which I am a fellow
He is an incredible human being !

I went to puerto rico during the darkest part of this winter it was nice 89 degrees and sunny with rain . But what caught me off guard was they experienced a hurricane Maria and half of the shops were closed around the world the Himalayas people were suffering after a quake . The minute we left Florida the boats were all over the coast from large wave I wonder if there have been alot of unusual weather anomalies because it seems we cannot avoid the suffering of people around the world.
I really as I've got older would forsake the peak . For a peek at the infamous mountain that took the Swiss machine form us . If the world's greatest mountain climber failed on her I got no business even risking another person's life I would rather capture everest on a camera lens.
I don't get the disparaging of climbers. Most seasoned climbers experience and appreciate the landscape, history and culture and often spend plenty of time with locals. . Probably much more than a one-time trekker.
Just because you can climb something, doesn't mean that you must. On a very very much smaller scale I chose not to climb Uluru in Australia, and you know what... I still feel some of the reverence which the local people have for it.
What a totally awesome experience...being put in a position to want something but forced to physically submit to nature...it's a lesson in how small and fragile we all are. Great video...thanks for taking us along!!!!!
Cheers Kevin - always good to have a comment from my fellow Kevin ! 😊

Congrats on the film brave man. I still remember your sigh sounds after achieving these goals. What a beautiful journey and what do I miss that place. Happy to see you walking around there. Breathing heavily but it is always an accomplishment
to reach that altitude. I love to go back there with you one day. Just to have a good time without pushing too much.
Never again !
Cheers Milan we certainly did have one hell of an adventure
I did a trek in Bhutan in Oct/Nov 2023. 10 days and only a few hours of rain!!! The trek was called the Jomolhari Trek. We took the anti mountain sickness drug called Diamox. I started 2 days before ascending and had half a tablet in the morning and half a tablet at night. I had no problems with the altitude. We went over 2 passes at 5,000 meters. I highly recommend it as a preventative measure. During the 10 day trek we only saw 2 other individuals. Our guides were Bhutanese and were fantastic. No Bhutanese are allowed to carry loads. Ponies carry the gear and there is a limit on the amount they can carry. They also don't allow anyone to climb the high mountains (Jomolhari is over 8,000 meters) as they feel the mountains are sacred. I think they have learned from Nepals mistakes.
Great to hear from a fellow adventurer !

I really enjoyed this, Kevin! Thank you! There really is something magical about Nepal and Everest!
Cheers Darren ! Totally agree ( not quite the same) but am currently in Scotland generating more content Hope you can subscribe 😊🏴
I was expecting this channel to be huge! Amazing video, keen to watch your channel grow as it deserves to!
Such a nice comment, I hear it quite a lot. I guess it’s the UA-cam algorithms that need to catch up and yes I’ve got a lot more planned!! thanks for your ongoing support
I will never see the Himalayas but they are a part of the nature around me that I love. I share the pain of the planet and the guilt of humanity. Thank you for this wonderful film.
Thank you for your kind comment-Ive lots more planed including Kilimanjaro I hope you can subscribe
Super proud. Loving it so far mate. Wish I was there with you...next one! Talk soon.
Your my hero Rob !!! We need to be on the road again! 😉
This was amazing. Thankful for you sharing your journey. I often think about how different it was in the early 2000’s and how much I could’ve recorded everything but also thankful that I was able to enjoy a more simpler time. Thank you for sharing this beautiful experience and honoring the Sherpas’ legacy.
@@ttjustdgaf cheers it means a lot!! Next Adventure in September is Kilimanjaro - hope you can subscribe and follow that one !
@@KevinAugelloNewEarthFilms looking forward to it! Already subscribed 👍🏽
Since the sherpas are so fit despite the reduced oxygen, they would feel like Superman at sea level.
A good question!
Yes, but after a week or so you loose the amount or red blood cells
Check out 14 Peaks on Netflix!
Hope you can subscribe Ive lots more planned!
oxygen is at same level.. it is the atmospheric pressure that is low.
@@MajoIngram Ok whatever. People have a hard time breathing at high altitude. The people who climb Everest use bottled oxygen. If a plane loses cabin pressure at 30,000 feet, oxygen masks drop and they have to descend to 10,000 or everyone will perish. I don't know what to tell you.
Sherpas are like reliable cars that can run for really long. The rest of us are like gas guzzlers that burn out fast. They aren’t more athletic at sea level, they just have a higher endurance at high altitudes
I think at sea level they would feel like they're drowning
Thanks for sharing your trek with us. I live in Canada, we have lots of beautiful scenery here! Come visit the Canadian Rocky mountains, lots of hiking trails and lakes!
Canada at every level is a magical place to visit. Been many times. Its on my list to go back. But next adventure already booked is Kilimanjaro planned for September. Hope you can subscribe for that one
Thank you, Kevin, for giving us the opportunity to hike along with you. Inspiring and emotional! We should really appreciate what nature is telling us. Subscribed of course.
Thank you for making such a beautiful comment I’m actually literally as I speak exporting a new film about my tips when tracking to Everest base camp
so glad you have subscribed I’ve got lots more adventures to come !
Thank you. As a photographer, I can only imagine the absolute beauty of Nepal, it's people and the surroundings you have so graciously shown the world. I can see myself being brought to tears in witnessing such staggering beauty. Being born in 1953, the same year that Everest was first climbed, I somehow feel a kinship to these magnificent mountains. It must be my Scottish/Irish heart that feels such things. Again, thank you so much for such a personal and inspiring vid.
Thank you for taking time to watch my film, and thank you for making such a gracious comment
I too come from Scottish blood - my grandfather
I think you might enjoy my documentary about the West Highland Way all on my channel or the Great Glen Way
Either way (🤣) I’ve got a lot planned so I hope you can subscribe and share some more adventures
I watch a lot of videos about everest and your video was recommended. Saw like 30 seconds and instantly subscribed. I love your vibe!
Thanks so much!
I have a lot planned really hope you can subscribe and enjoy some more adventures
I’m curious where in the world are you posting from?
I am a former Backcountry backpacker the longest I was in was 2wk Eastern Sierra Nevada range. It was fantastic and I appreciate the beauty standing on the Cols. I cried walking out (I am a woman) . I didn't want to leave. My heart is still there. New subbie.
Thats a hike definitely on my bucket list. Thank you for watching and thank you for subscribing!!
Thank you for this video. It was so very well done...beautifully filmed and profoundly educational. I learned so much!
Thank you so much for watching! Lots more planed !
Hope you can subscribe
I did!
I did!
I didn’t appreciate the comment that Sir Edmund Hillary made about Mark Ingles, either. Everest, technology and society were different when he summited. I respect that he had cotton clothing and had to carry his own shit, make his own food, etc. You can’t really brag if you had 20 sherpas carrying your bags, while using oxygen and having sherpas make you food and speaking English so you don’t have to learn even basic Sherpa (language). that's like getting under a 98 on an open book test. 😂
My physician, who is not in the best shape himself, took his wife and two kids on this trip. The tour companies are turning what used to be a bucket-list event into a "summer holiday", where just about anyone and their dog is helped to reach the camp. So sad!
What a lovely 56 minutes - and an excellent edit, thank you. I love your appreciation and respect for the Sherpa people - and even for the differentiation and who they actually are : ) Rinzin's smile lights up even in that bright sunshine. But his brief moments of sadness are also etched on his face when he speaks of dark times - he's very expressive. Altitude is no joke, but I do love Nepal - and her best asset are her people❤ Thank you for a beautiful film..❤
PS: - I wonder if Rinzin showed you the garbage and effluent pits at Gorak Shep? They are hidden just of the trail behind a couple of hills. The tons of bagged up garbage from Base Camp, and all of the human effluent that collects in the blue barrels are all hauled away on the backs of the Yaks to Gorak Shep where it is dumped. The problem with that is that DECADES of garbage and effluent are known to be leeching into the main water source of the Khumbu Valley ... so millions of people downstream are at high risk from the resultant contamination. In such a magnificent part of the world, I find this utterly disgusting ... but what else can be done? The Khumbu Valley would be drastically poorer without the tourism - every township along the trail live on that money for the rest of the year! But it's impossible to haul the refuse any further from Base Camp (and a small amount also comes down from further up the mountain when the clean-up crews bring it down - but very few climbers bother to claim the $4,000 refundable portion of their $15,000 climbing permit fee (yes, the fee increased from $11k to $15k in 2024) by bringing down their allotted 8kg of rubbish. There are no 'garbage police' on Everest to make them do this - and they just don't care about $4k refund when their climb is definitely over. They just want to get the hell off the mountain - and many will leave on the very next chopper out to Lukla or Kathmandu).. But this can't continue on such a large scale - with up to 1000 people each season coming and going at Base Camp for 6-8 weeks at a time .. that's a lot of garbage and a lot of human effluent to be hauled away and added to the pits ... and alreaady the pits aren't coping. I just wondered if Rinzin discussed that situation with you at all? Because I don't think I'm alone in wanting to know what he might have said about this problem or what ideas he, as a local, might have to suggest? Thank you again : )
Thank you for taking time to comment !
Actually, we were very lucky we almost saw zero rubbish along the trail and anything we did see we picked up - I found one AA battery, which got put in my pocket and recycled when back home
Wow what an amazing journey and videography! Thank you!

Another brilliant and gripping addition to your growing channel Kevin.
I’ve thoroughly enjoyed following you on your journey this evening.
All the best.
Cheers Andrew !!!! it’s a privilege that you stay tuned !
Hiya Kevin. Thanks so much for sharing this film, I really enjoyed watching it. I spent a bit of time in Nepal in 2022, and I even have a video from time climbing Mera Peak, and I totally understand what you mean when you talk about feeling connected to Nepal, it's natural environment and the people. Being in Nepal felt like being coming home for me, it was the closest I've felt to truly feeling like myself. Thank you again for sharing this film, and I look forward to watching more of your adventures. Calum x
Hi Calum, really appreciate your comment and share passion for Nepal - I’ve already made enquiries about Mera !!!
Stay tuned and there might be another Nepal film coming out soon !!
PS you might like my bike parking adventure in Iceland also on my channel with a very powerful human story behind it
@@KevinAugelloNewEarthFilms I'll keep a look out. I'm hoping to get back to Nepal in the not-to-distant future also. You'll love MERA, I had a great time, and it was some feeling standing on that summit. ATB.
I really appreciated the “sting in the tail” and the honesty of your reaction to it.
While I might trek in a rather different style, I certainly share many of your feelings about Nepal.
I first went to Nepal overland from London in 1977. In 1980 I did my first Everest trek which in those days started at Lamasangu. It took 43 days there and back.
I’ve now been five times to the Everest region (and many more times elsewhere), most recently in Spring 2023. I’ve always walked in and only flown out once - on this most recent trip because I had younger companions with me.
We did the Three Passes loop which I’d last done in 2011 (Kongma La, Cho La and Renjo La) and obviously EBC, Kala Patthar and Gokyo Ri.
On the Cho La I was astounded at the difference in the main and side glaciers in just 12 years. I was able to compare these differences afterwards with my own photos taken in almost exactly the same spots. My estimate was around 15-20m of ice loss. And this is at 5300m or so.
Also the downs and ups on both big glacier crossings (to Lobuche and to Gokyo) are much more pronounced than before.
One thing that you won’t have seen though is painfully obvious on the walk in from Jiri. And that’s the wholesale destruction of the forest due to road building.
On my first descent from the Taksindu La (March 1980) the forest canopy was covered in Rhododendron flowers. There were Magnolia trees with huge white stars. There were Langur monkeys.
There is now mostly open sky and the trunks of felled trees are scattered down the slope. Of course the road is only partially finished and this will likely lead to massive erosion before too many monsoons have passed.
Further on near Bupsa the road is being blasted into the hillside and the resulting rock debris tipped over the side where it denudes the forest down to the valley floor.
And part of the “benefit” of this road is the loss of the porter industry and later no doubt the mule train economy (as it has done in the Annapurna region).
The road also makes it easier for people to leave. Younger ones to school and older ones to escape the harsh winters. I have seen the result of this in the Manang region. Houses falling into disrepair because there aren’t the people to maintain them. Also the loss of farming skills if kids are educated away from their homes in a city. It’s a difficult problem with no easy answers. What makes perfect sense at an individual level has catastrophic impacts at scale.
Two points stood out from your doing this with a group (though I absolutely accept your rationale for doing it this way).
The first was when you missed going up Gokyo Ri which I would rate more highly than Kala Patthar. Your decision not to go that day was wise. But because you were tied to a group schedule you couldn’t simply take a zero day and go up the next day.
The second was that groups often (mostly?) go first to Gokyo and then over the Cho La from west to east. Some even do the Renjo La in that direction.
For any number of reasons it makes far more sense to go East to West across all three passes. Specifically for the Cho La you can sleep overnight in Dzonglha from where it’s a much shorter climb to the pass with the sun on your back. You can then stop at Dragnag and tackle the glacier to Gokyo the following morning.
I hope you get a chance to go back and walk some more on your own.
One little correction I’d end with:
Nepal is not a Buddhist country although the mountain regions certainly are. 80% are Hindu. Only 8% are Buddhist and 10% are a wide variety including Muslim and Christian.
That said I can fully understand why one might have that impression. Says I sitting under strings of prayer flags at home here in Europe.
Thanks for your thoughtful work.
Thank you for taking the time to comment in such an in-depth way !

Thank You Kevin for Everest trip, scenery, and historical info.
Glad you enjoyed my little adventure ❤
What a documentary, Kevin your passionate personality really shows in this video. A fantastic trip for you all , 1 questions how was your friend who got overwhelmed by altitude sickness’s? I do hope he is recovering well. See you on the next one ☝️
Thanks for your support in following me - and so kind to ask, he was sick for sometime even in Ktm. But he is good now. You can’t play Russian Roulette with altitude !
Am now planning the next one - had so many positive comments like yours it’s certainly gets the ball rolling !
I just spent most of the night watching the full climb from Lukla to Summit from a 19 yo Ryan Mitchell...i ve noticed not much snow there until camp 4...i felt like i climb that mountain myself this past night
Well done. I really enjoyed this! It makes me wanna do EBC again.
Fantastic, do it again !
Really appreciate you taking time to watch and comment I’ve lots more adventures planned I hope you can subscribe
Was happy to find your channel and subscribe. You are somewhere i wish to be but cannot be due to my health. I am only 56 but....still could not be wherevyou are. Its a joy to be able to watch. Thank You
Thank you !!!
If you have time you might enjoy the bike packing film I made in Iceland for my channel. It’s about friendship but also overcoming adversity
What an excellent documentary, Kevin! I really enjoyed watching it. The first-person format gave me the feeling that I was actually there, hiking with you. I really liked the talking-head bits in between with extra background information. I really learned a lot! The Everest Base Camp climax was indeed shocking and I felt your emotion. It's extremely concerning and it's a very good thing that you're getting that story out there. Wishing you all the best with your future films and looking forward to seeing them!
That’s a beautiful comment - I really appreciate your support. I’ve lots more to come. I really hope you can subscribe and join me on more adventures!
Don’t forget we’ve just gone through several years of very high sun spot activity which has the same effect on melting ice and contributes more than anything else to the planets climate.
Love being able to share your journey! You were honest and open about challenges you faced. Thank you!!
@@beckyjackson7755 thank you! Am off to Kilimanjaro next month exclusively for my channel hope you can also enjoy that Film best wishes
20 days accommodation nearly at the penthouse of the planet for $600 is actually laughably inexpensive. If you stayed in Sydney Australia in a hostel at a backpackers for 20 days in a 6 bed dorm during peak holiday season you'd be paying on average $1600 & you wouldn't be getting the pot of tea, the chocolate and a bog roll to be taking with you.
He said you probably pay 30 dollars a day MORE, on top of what you already paid for this trip. I looked it op (on the website of World Expeditions). It's about 2500 euros (because I'm in Europe it gives me the price in euros, but a dollar is not very different from a euro).
Those rich old Sherpas, eh.
Fantastic 🎉❤
What a great journey and thank you for sharing it with us. I appreciate your point of view on the global warming and you have a way that made me feel like you were asking me personally, what am I doing to protect our planet. I am an avid backpacker but much prefer the Grand Canyon to Everest. Like some have said in earlier post that this journey seems like a more fulfilling trek than making the summit. Much respect to you and I did hit the subscribe button.
Thank you David for commenting and indeed watch - The Grand canyon would be an absolute dream !
You might also enjoy the bike packing film I made in Iceland (also on my channel) it’s a film about friendship, but with a very inspiring backstory
I have been to Nepal a number of times myself. I am now 77 and last went in 2016 to the Annapurnas also with World Expeditions whom I can also recommend.
I have been to Gokyo and EBC twice and crossed the Cho La in both directions. The second time was in 2011 with Exodus whom I can also recommend. Crossing the Cho La is certainly tough however If you are up to it, then the extra three days to go to Gokyo I believe are well worth it. It is a shame you could not get to Gokyo Ri. I think the views of Everest are better than from Kala Pattar even though you are a bit further away. The other benefit of going to Gokyo as well, is that you do not retrace your steps as much on the return journey to Lukla.
Your advice on acclimatisation is excellent. I have been pretty lucky in that respect. Always remember the Sherpa mantra "slowly, slowly".
The lake at EBC was certainly not there when I last visited.
Having this comment from someone like yourself, is a real honour… thank you so much for your input and advice… being 77 years young, I hope your boots are ready for another adventure… stay safe and hope you can subscribe because I’ve got a lot more planned - Best wishes, Kevin
The best Everest view I had last october was from the Ngozumpa glacier aside of the fifth lake. There you can see Everest down to the South Col. Better than from Renjo La and from Gokyo Ri.
Thank you for this opportunity to see and experience your point of view of Everest base camp 2. I feel we see and hear so much more about base camp 1 that base camp 2 isn’t seen often and the visual of the global warming impact is profound for a place you know should be cold enough to maintain ice at all times.
Thank you for sharing your friend Mr. Hall, Sherpa Rensing and your friend who got ill and turned back down to lower elevation’s story of the mountain; a place I’ll never go physically but appreciate.
Really appreciate you taking time to watch and comment my next adventure is soon to Kilimanjaro! - Hope you can subscribe for that one !
Really enjoy your format - Subscribed! :D
Cheers Adam ! Ive got a lot more planned accross different genres. Your subscribe is really appreciated!
I worked a summer in Colorado a few years ago. It was outdoor work, and moderately strenuous. Depending on where I was working, the elevation was, on average around 4000 meters.
Coming from a low elevation, for me it was like having asthima. By midday I completely exhausted, and wheezing for breath that sometimes I just couldn't catch. I kept an oxygen breather on hand if I needed a little boost and that helped a lot.
I can't even comprehend how hard it would be adding on another 1000 meters of elevation to be where you were, let alone the 8,000 required to summit some of these places. Crazy.
When that summer ended, and I came home, I felt like an elite athlete for about 6 months. I was virtually tireless. It was awesome. And short lived. 😀
Thank you for the interesting comment !
- A beautiful place Colorado !

The sherpas are like that naturally due to thousands of years of evolution of living at a high altitude and, due to no roads, their ancestors always had to carry their supplies.
Stunning. 🤭 Truly. Makes me miss my hiking in the Cascade Mountains in Washington. I need to get back to that...to the crunch of a path beneath my feet, mountains in the sky. The Himalayas are astounding, and the people gems. Great documentary.

Deuteronomy 11:16 KJV
Take heed to yourselves, that your heart be not deceived, and ye turn aside, and serve other gods, and worship them;
2 Timothy 3:13 KJV
But evil men and seducers shall wax worse and worse, deceiving, and being deceived.
lets analyse the lies through which are we daily deceived:
lie: schools are of use (fact. schools keep slavery alive and stands for dumbing down the population of mankind)
lie: moon and mars landings, (fact: even masons know they cannot leave - earth is closed system, unless you want to drown, there is no other place created for us to live in.)
lie: news channels share truth (fact: these are for politic propaganda)
lie: voting matters (fact: politic propaganda)
lie: money has a value of its own (fact: it is just a tool of this world, which value has been agreed upon world wide, it should be not loved, only used as needed.)
lie: NASA lies (globe and all....) (fact: NASA stands for TO DECEIVE and 2 members expose their own lies, one is still alive, the other (Wernher Von Braun) place a clear clue on his own gravestone) - you havn´t searched - have you?
lie: the lgbtq++++ propaganda (fact: it is a part of masonry depopulation agenda, 500 000 000 souls, thats their goal - Georgia Guidestones! - who said it be worthy to forget?)
lie: Evolution and the dinosaurs. (fact: mankind is not hybrid kind)
to keep stating that there was an evolution, then we ain´t humans, we aint then mankind, we are then hybrids. Are you a hybrid?
Lie: holidays (xmas, Halloween, new year eve and so on) (fact: PAGAN HOLIDAYS, to praise BAAL, the god of this world)
lie: U.F.Os (fact: they are demons/evil spirits in high places, against whom we fight daily = spiritual warfare)
lie: rules and laws rule the world (fact: signs and symbols of masonry do)
lie: believe in being educated (fact: found daily living with the lack of knowledge)
lie: religions are ways to heaven (fact: JESUS CHRIST is only way to heaven. Religions, no matter its name = masonic garbage)
lie: our dead loved ones stay around to “ghost” (fact: hunting and ghosting is job of demons, not of humans. We, humans, come from GOD and return back to HIM and all the stories of having been seen a ghost - terrifying, scary, dark, cold - again no job of analysing been done here by you- right?)
Lie: Humans have no immune system and we need vaccines as these save lives (fact: humans HAVE IMMUNE SYSTEM and vaccines are created for one or two purpose: to kill or to cripple. If you took all their poison shots then later in life comes all kinds of medical diagnoses = vaccines crippled you - remember that)
lie: there is no GOD (fact: There is GOD, who redeems sinners and created us directly from the dust of the earth: Psalms 139:14 (KJV)
I will praise thee; for I am fearfully and wonderfully made: marvellous are thy works; and that my soul knoweth right well.)
to keep claiming that there is no GOD and we aint created directly from the dust of the earth, we soon run out logic, regardless to we place “evolution” in our claims or not and our dead, whats happening to them as they sleep in their graves? - they decay away, becoming the dust form which they were taken, if it ain`t so then we are simply reality deniers.
lie: 911 was terror attack (fact: 911 was an inside job, meaning the work of your loved government)
lie: TV watching is of use (fact: television (TV) = tell a lie vision, a weapon for our minds, keeping it under MK ULTRA)
half lie/half truth: earth is a stage where everyone plays rolls (fact: earth is stage, a freemasonry checkerboard, where both side, black and white are masons and humans both in politics and regular souls = the naive public gets daily played)
lie: children are government to raise (fact: children are parents to raise, it takes 2 to make them, it takes 2 to raise them).
Lie: we live already in the matrix (fact: we live since birth in BABYLON which is to become “matrix” as Man - us, must merge with machine aka take the mark of the beast and then matrix aka false reality becomes to be 100%)
lie: humans are not intelligent enough (fact: it is forgotten fact, we all are intelligent, many have suffered the illness from this world, being indoctrinated by masons, cause who give us the school system which we have? masons did, because they need slaves).
Lie: love is low standard and = lust (fact love is high standard as love means>
John 15:13
Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.
Lie> do what thy wilt there is no body who has the right to judge you (fact> GOD SHALL JUDGE YOU AFTER YOU HAVE DEPARTED ON EARTH and Christians are also called to give out righteous judgment, therefore repent * born again * go and sin no more)
lie: slavery is over (fact: slavery was never over, it just changes a little as we are no longer buy`d or sold, still prepared through school systems for our future slavery, succumb to our slave lives based on our free will)
lie: BIBLE is man written and a fairytale (fact: BIBLE is written by GOD, through man, bible is not fairytale.
BIBLE IS:
BASIC
INFORMATION/instruction
BEFORE
LEAVING
EARTH
= BIBLE. A book - yes, book which we all need as it is only one filled with information and instructions we all need for life on earth.
Lie: Miss beauty contests around the world is about beauty of FEMALES (fact: these contests are about beauty of MALES IN DRAG)
lie: Medical “virus” known as COVID 19 (facts: real VIRUSES are in Hollywood and kept secret:
- THE TTM virus = being tare, trans, mason.
Lie: There is no truth, no right nor wrong and all is allowed as long as you are happy. (fact: truth is easy to find, search: BIBLE + FREEMASONRY and expose masons in masonry).
28 lies, should i go on?
Good documentary film. Like how you cover each section of the hike independantly with interviews, scene shots and explanations, all very interesting and truthful. Glad you made it and didn't have to turn back.

That’s really appreciated !
Such a kind comment thank you
What a beautiful film. Brought tears to my eyes. Thank you for sharing ♥️
@@frockabyebabyshabbychic2611 thank you so much for a lovely comment. I’m off to Kilimanjaro in a few months. Hope you can enjoy that one too.
I'm sympathetic to your emotion over the loss of the original base camp. It must have been a shock. I hope that you find more joy in the rememberance of your trek when you understand that it is the SUN and the natural climate cycles of planet Earth that is causing the warming. We've been warming since the last ice age. Glaciers have been retreating more rapidly because of solar dynamics. It is just the times we are in.
You’re absolutely right, I’m also a trained geologist - global temperatures have been changing for billions of years. At one point, we were called snowball earth with ice, even at the equator. Other times, they were no ice at all, even at the poles. But it’s what we have been doing for the last 250 years with the release of captured carbon. That is the real concern, if we don’t change our way collectively. We are all the problem ,we are all the solution. Including me.
I hope you liked the film lots more to come would be great if you can subscribe
@@KevinAugelloNewEarthFilms Consider it done! Thank you for responding. I agree that our carbon emissions may have sped up the process and we need to change our ways. If we suddenly did, and stopped all carbon emissions right now, do you believe it would slow the cycle down enough to make a difference in the end? I wonder if we have been blaming ourselves for the warming needlessly when it was coming all along. Is that too left field? I am interested in hearing your thoughts on the matter, if you please. Cheers, and yes, I loved the video. All things Everest fascinate me. What beauty in the people and the surroundings. Cannot be beat.
@@KevinAugelloNewEarthFilms It is not the carbon emission, which increases the temperature. It is the temperature increase, wich leads to an increase in carbon dioxide in the atmosphere with a time lag of about 500 years.
Raw data are just so much for informative than IPCC publications... !
Beautiful film, thank you sharing this amazing journey with us!

Beautiful video Mr. Augello! thank you brother- very nice down to earth look,, one can deream and you inspired it in me. cheers
Thanks for your great comment I really appreciate it !
Los more adventures to come - hope you can subscribe
Awesome film Kevin! What an incredible trip it was. Next time we're going to the top! ;)
Cheers Martin - what’s a real adventure with you !
Thanks for giving some of your great footage !
Beautiful and inspiring. Thankyou for sharing
@@suzicroxford6893 arrr thanks so much- ironically this time last week I was returning from Kilamanjaro that Film will be out on my channel soon. Hope you can subscribe and follow more of my adventures. Your support is really appreciated.
I'm sure a lot of people don't feel the way I do about Sir Edmund Hillary but to me he is tainted in my eyes because of what he said about Mark Inglis and the David Sharp controversy as when you're at 8500 meters and a double amputee I find it hard to say that Mark Inglis should have been responsible for saving David Sharp. If you're in the death zone on Everest it's hard enough to save yourself let alone another person and being a double amputee I feel if you want to criticize others maybe you have a point but not someone that is a double amputee in the death zone. I know also that Sir Edmund Hillary was also an old man but again he has been tainted in my eyes. Others can idolize him if they want but not me...
Funnily enough, I totally agree with you - we filmed Hilary for a documentary titled Miracle on Everest - he certainly wasn’t impressed with the popularity of his beloved mountain - I understand that, but unfortunately it has become the way of the world, and no one has the individual right to deny someone of their dreams. I really appreciate your educated comment. I had a lot of odd comments regarding the climatic change in the Himalayas. Some of them are utterly ignorant. Blaming the likes of Elon Musk ?!?
I’ve got lots more adventures planned, Bruce I hope you can subscribe . Once again, thanks for your comment.
PS I met both Mark and David on my 2006 expedition
Sir Edmund has been to the summit and has direct experience. Is that true for you, Bruce?
@@garymitchell5899 A person can have an opinion on a matter whether or not their personal experience mirrors that of the person on who they express their opinion.
By your measure, only a serial killer has the right to express an opinion on that subject.
Only a former president has the right to express an opinion on a sitting president.
I don't think that you have followed in the footsteps of Bruce. So, by your rules, you shouldn't have the right to comment on his opinion.
@@cwavt8849 I totally agree. Sir Edmund was commenting on what should and shouldn't be done at the summit, and he has actually been to the summit. The first, in fact.
As far as I know Bruce hasn't, which is why I asked him.
Thank you for backing me up. Do you think Bruce will reply?
He made an accurate statement concerning the microcosm of humanity as a whole I certainly don’t think that he was correct in saying that Mark Ingles alone should have been wound up there to see people. You can’t save anyone not even yourself when you’re in something called death sudden you don’t need to be on that mountain or even go to that mountain to have enough common sense to know that that just doesn’t work. At the very least he could’ve at least called out the other 29+ people also walked past these people and did nothing.
After being in Nepal last month, I can only say that it was one of the greatest experiences of my life. Unfortunately, bad weather left us stranded in Ramechhap for 4 days, so we had to re-plan our entire tour. But it was still just fantastic, it was particularly beautiful to see Changtse, Everest and Nuptse lit up in red and gold at sunset from the summit of Kala Patthar, even if it was very physically challenging. Especially the "last" day, because we couldn't fly out of Lukla due to the weather and had to walk and return to Kathmandu by jeep. 23 hours of pure suffering. ;-) I can also agree with your list of 10 tips, it is absolutely accurate.
I would be delighted to hear news of your current project soon. Best wishes.
@@olligle6866 thanks so much for taking time to comment coming soon on my channel is also an adventure to Kilamanjaro. Hope you can watch that one too.
Sounds like you had a hell of an adventure!!
This was a great video for me. Never being able to have this adventure, but dreaming of it
Oh that’s awesome, am glad it takes you there as much as it can - that means a lot to me ! Lots more in the pipeline, I hope you can subscribe
I like your way of visiting that area, Sir. For me you stand in the tradition of Messner, Kammerlander, Schlegel e.g.: Dicovering the landscape, its people and myths as well. The great Sagas about summit-dramas are told... your spirit is different :) Thanks a lot !
Hi Kevin, I have been looking forward to your film and have just finished watching.
Honestly, I am a little lost for words as I shared your emotions on reaching base camp with you through the film.
I have watched all of your UA-cam films and really appreciate your honesty and the outstanding quality you reproduce.
Thank you 🙂
P.s Are you still planning on walking Cape Wrath trail ?
Andy, thanks for being the first person to hit that comment button and what a comment to have !!!!
Yes, the CWT is still very much in the planning !!!
Thank you for such a wonderful documentary. I felt like I was there with you, every step of the way.
Subscribed.
Thank you, that’s really kind !!!
Your support is so much appreciated
Fantastic down to earth adventure story. No touristic bullshit.
Cheers Eddie !
Lots more coming including Kilimanjaro
You will also definitely like the film I did with a friend when we are parked around Iceland - it already on my channel
The real heroes are the sherpas.
100%, but not only that they are just incredibly nice people - full stop-
Hope you enjoyed the film I’ve lost more to come. I hope you can subscribe and follow more adventures.
Thanks so much. So many happy memories. I too, was sad to see the new lake at EBC. It wasn't there in 2012. I climbed Chola Pass in snow and ice plus a white out thrown in for extra excitement. I am sorry you did not get to do Gorkio Ri, but understand your reasoning. My second visit to EBC ended at Gorak Shep where a helicopter collected me for a few days in Kathmandu hospital due to a case of pneumonia. Despite this set back I would dearly love to return to Nepal and especially the Khumba Valley. Safe trekking everyone.
Thank you for a very interesting and informative account of your hike to the Everest Base Camp!
Really appreciate you taking time and taking time to comment !
I’ve lots more Adventures is coming so I hope you can subscribe it would really mean a lot !
Really appreciate you taking time and taking time to comment !
I’ve lots more Adventures is coming so I hope you can subscribe it would really mean a lot !
💯🙏❤️
Thank you very much for commenting I am really taken back by the response the film is getting, lots more adventures to come I hope you can subscribe
Really enjoyed your documentary. One of the better video styles so made it cool to watch.
@@stevehay3399 really appreciate your comment. My next adventure is on Kilimanjaro in a couple of months. Hope you can watch that one too !
@@KevinAugelloNewEarthFilms Your welcome. Will tune into your Kilamanjaro trip. Out of curiousity what camera and mic system did you use?
There is a big carbon footprint traveling to Everest. It is a wake up call for this guy.
- this is true, there is a massive carbon footprint and everything we do in life. Which is why for 20 years I haven’t eaten meat, for the meat industry is the biggest producer of greenhouse gases Especially methane about 30% - aviation on the other hand is 2%, which is still a problem I agree
My house is completely off grid using solar - I don’t own a car I travel everywhere by bicycle or train where possible
But I’m still part of the problem - we all need to find solutions. There is no quick fix, but sticking our heads in the sand is an affix either - stay safe my friend
@KevinAugelloNewEarthFilms millions of herd animals covered the plains. Blaming cattle, sheep goats, and chickens is a weak cop out.
@@KevinAugelloNewEarthFilmsBy making unnecessary holidays to Nepal?
@@garymitchell5899thank you so much!!
Oh. This is sad.
One watches a great documentary, only to arrive at the comments section to find a discussion of a fairytale, passed off as real.
Speaking from an apolitical standpoint, yes, the earth is in rotten shape and the filmmaker is doing his part to combat that in his daily life. Wonderful!
As long as people believe in fairytales though, nothing whatsoever will change... besides the amount of money in some people's /corporations' pocketbooks.
One would prefer not to have to speak euphemistically, using words such as "fairytale", but the censors demand it.
The documentary itself was wonderful and much appreciated!!
I've watched many programs on treking to Base Camp but this was easily the best one
Hi Roger, thank you so much that comment really is so kind !
I’m a professional filmmaker anyway, but I’m going to put all my energy now into UA-cam instead of working for broadcasters - I want to generate content that inspires others
The earth warms up and cools down; check your history!
Well actually I do… I’m actually also a qualified geologist. There are many factors that contribute towards glacial melting. Position of Earth in relation to the Sun, volcanic activity on the planet etc etc - but there is a direct correlation between the carbon omissions in the last 250 years and global trends in the natural world. Glaicers across the planet are in rapid decline. This lake appeared in six years, which in geological time is nanosecond - is this directly linked to human activity impossible to give a black and white answer, but we certainly haven’t helped ! B
@@KevinAugelloNewEarthFilms You're probably familiar with this video if you're a geologist. ua-cam.com/video/LmmmgiPha_Y/v-deo.html. Our earth has been around about 4.5 billion years, temperatures fluctuate, look at the dinosaurs. That's life. Yes humans have accelerated the temperatures, look at the Romans early in 1CE the biggest polluters of the planet. We adapt, animals adapt or humans will find solutions or civilizations die out.
Super video.. brings back wonderful memories. I did Base Camp in 2017 when I was 57. Since then I have returned to Nepal 2 more times, most recently last year when I climbed Poon Hill in th Annapurnas... amazing country with amazing people
Fantastic Tracey, I’m glad you enjoyed !
I am planning a little trip to Mera Peak ! So lots more Himalayan adventures to come hope you can subscribe
I know it’s a different country but check out the film I did in Iceland. When I cycled around it with a friend I get the feeling you might enjoy that one too !
Before I post this and cause an uproar I want to say that I really enjoyed this short film.
Global warming has happened again and again and again on this planet. I'm not saying that we haven't had anything to do with it this time but the planet will cool down again and if it does that too fast then humanity will really have something to worry about. I'm not looking for a fight with anyone so there is no need to pick one with me. Randall Carlson and Graham Hancock have really made me do my own digging on this matter and what the mainstream propaganda machine is telling us isn't the truth. All those people still own most of the real estate on the coasts and the people that have lived on the ocean their entire lives have not seen any changes to speak of....
You’re absolutely right, But I’m actually also a qualified geologist. There are many factors that contribute towards glacial melting.

@@KevinAugelloNewEarthFilmsSorry I thought I did subscribe. Done now...
I gave you a CLICK! plus subscribed! Thank you for your wonderful ‘travel log’! Wonderful! 😊
Thank you so much- Ive losts planned this year so glad you can join !
Also, check out the film I did in Iceland. I’ve cycled around the island with a friend… it has an incredible human story behind it.
$30 at a lodge is nothing. A beer at a concert in the states almost cost that much. I wouldnt go out of country thousands of miles away without plenty of money and emergency funds. That's expected. Everything has changed since 2020 on prices
It’s actually quite expensive considering where you are.
Great video, thanks. I have never been there, but I DID used to like Austria, Germany; and the USSR as was.
I share the disgust about litter and un-caring armature expeditions that never clean their waste and remains behind. I also agree with the bans imposed by Nepal, on the illegal route visitors. Especially the 10 year ones for the worst offenders. I'd make it for life. They put undue wear on the environment, with no regard to local Authorities. (Rant over) haha.
I think you really put something of the spirit of trekking like this, and your guide was a diamond; a rare type of Guide, like some of those I found myself.
I used to love camping and hiking myself in the Lake District and later,; all around Scotland, but after my back injuries, that's all in the past. Thanks again for a great video; excellent, and easy to follow delivery. (Subscribed). You were right to take that rest, to benefit later. It would make the visit more enjoyable; instead of a task to do. More please.
@@jackharrison6771 glad you enjoyed… however I can honestly say that during one month we almost didn’t see any rubbish and anything that we did we picked up
hope you can subscribe.
I’m off on my next adventure next week to Kilimanjaro
@@KevinAugelloNewEarthFilms That's good. Take great care there.
Love your channel.
But as far as emotional over climate change?
You promote people to come to Nepal and imagine all the people who now come from this video. Buying more gear and camera 🤳 etc that are all mined a stripped from the rainforest. Then you show us all the planes it takes to get there along with all the helicopters getting people up. These are the biggest pollutions in the world 🌎.
So yes you can feel good about helping the community with tourism. But they survived way before tourism was there.
So I get confused when people get upset when they are the ones pushing a bigger carbon footprint 👣 and then telling us who don't travel to feel bad 😞
Not hating on you. But little confused 🤔
I used to want to walk this path, but not now. I would just feel guilty of causing more damage. I hate how he says "my bucket list"
What a great video. Probably best hiking video to EBC on youtube I watched. It brings me so much good memories! Your guide man! He reminds me so much of our group guide Birkas. I have gone same route through Gokyo Lakes last September with Evertrek agency, and we too didn´t get to climb Gokyori but not because of tiredness, but because of bad weather conditions, so I really feel u friend. The views must be absolutely amazing there on a good day! also that´s where some of our group members faced some more serious breathing problems during sleep, altitude does kick in hard at some point. Also half of the trip I battled with headaches but that´s the reality people, would come back there any given time tho! I feel same way about being connected there spiritually, Its a special place to be. I took some notes from your video, the first would be to use tents instead of tea houses wherever possible, as they absolutely can start feeling boring, monotonic and even noisy at bed time for those who are sensitive sleepers. Next time I would go, I would buy less showers and WIFI, you are absolutely right about the prices in tea houses, the further you go more the more expensive it gets. We drain quite some money in the end of the day using all these services and from our experience WIFI wont necessarily be good anyways. Glad I can relate to Chola Pass day, I almost mentally gave up when I started climbing as the hike to It had already drained me, and the hike to nearest tea house after - destroyed us haha! It really really is difficult to do in such high altitudes, but I learnt a lot and its a great achievement.
What an emotional ending to this video too. We haven´t been told about the lake not meant to be there in EBC, glad you put that info in. And sorry about the friends you lost. Overall great work on this video! I personally took lots of videos and photographs throughout the trek of the area and my fellow hikers so would have loved to do some movie making for u!
Thank you for taking time to really comment - unfortunately it ended up in the ‘on hold bin’ I’ve had quite a few nasty comments accusing me of being a communist in reference to climate change !!!
Anyway, glad you had an awesome experience in the past I hope you can relive Ive tons more planned on my channel … hope you can stay tuned and subscribe !
Please do your due diligence and research the reason for the glaciers melting!!! We are currently still in an ice age that began 2.5 million years ago, the Quaternary glaciation. We are in an interglacial period of the ice age which is a warming period. Please do your research. As a scientist it is alarming that people have no idea the planet has gone through many coolings and warmings. It is alarming that many people do not know we are in a warming period of the Quaternary Ice Age.
You’re absolutely right, I’m also a trained geologist Phd - global temperatures have been changing for billions of years. At one point, we were called snowball earth with ice, even at the equator. Other times, they were no ice at all, even at the poles. This was driven by the Earth’s position in relation to the Sun and the amount of volcanic activity driven by the movement of the tectonic plates.
But it’s what we have been doing for the last 250 years with the release of captured carbon. Which acts as a blanket in our atmosphere. That is the real concern. There is also a delay about 50 years, 1.5 Celsius rise we are seeing globally now is correlated to carbon missions in the year I was born 1970 - it’s our children that will be feeling the consequences of what we’re doing today - the world will survive, but it’s more the consequence for biodiversity and that includes us - our children’s children
we need to move away from a fossil carbon future and use science and technology to change and adapt to the way we live - We are all the problem, we are all the solution.
Including me.
Carbon dioxide emissions have steadily been decreasing. The concept of Global warming was misrepresented and skewed based on corporate greed and corrupt lobbyist.
The human contribution to CO2 emissions began centuries ago (Industrial Revolution) but we began turning that around decades ago.
In time, given the work put in to lower the human footprint on the atmosphere, CO2 emissions will get quite low, however, we will not stop global warming due to the interglacial. @@KevinAugelloNewEarthFilms
What kind of scientist??

Beautiful place. I enjoyed watching this excellent video
Have happy weekend🕊
Thank you so much Harry I’ve got so much written down on my little list. The Adventure has only just begun. Hope you can subscribe
I was enjoying iup until the 'global warming' indoctrination' Repeating what you hear doesn't mean you are well educated. It means you are well trained.
Just for reference, I’m actually also a qualify geologist having worked for British Antarctic Survey studing isotopes in the ice crystals and how our climate has been impacted in the last 250 years since we’ve been pumping out trillions of tons of carbon into the atmosphere -
Just so you know
It was hard for me to walk & breathe normally at the Grand Canyon lol. I can’t imagine what being at that altitude feels like.
Now thats definitely on my bucket list the Grand Canyon !
Hope you enjoyed the film - next Adventure is Kilamanjaro !
We’ve done nothing to the planet…. What arrogance
Oh dear - oh well, everybody is entitled to their own opinion
Is that what Fox News told you? 😂
Settle down little boy.
…stunning,….stunning,…..just stunning,…..it’s stunning,….stunning.
Thank you for such a stunning comment !
Tons more planned hope you can subscribe
Sometimes one word says it all…. Stunningly beautiful!
That certainly does!
@notme1345 haha I know but I was reiterating the “stunning” part! Lol
Beautifully documented.. scenic pictures
Glad you enjoyed it !
Exelent video done very well--he explains everything and keep your interest up😊
As some who stumbled across this video, it has been a wonderful watch. I will never get the chance to do that, so it has been amazing to watch you complete the hike. Thank you for filming your adventure and uploading it. You gained a new subscriber. It gives me something positive to watch while crafting! Keep at it!
That is such a beautiful comment thank you so so much !!
I think he will also find my Adventure in Iceland when I cycled around the island a lot of fun - it has a very powerful human story behind
If you have time have a look, it’s on my channel
Thank you so much for subscribing and keep crafting ! x
New subscriber here! I've been binge watching all things Mt Everest and so far, your videos are my favorite! I'm from Texas and several years ago we went to Red River, New Mexico. The highest I've ever been in 13,500 ft. I can't imagine what it would be like up there! Thank you much for sharing this beautiful place!!
Really appreciate your support. Ironically I’m currently in a tent in Scotland making a new adventure. Lots more content to come, really appreciate your subscribe.
Already subscribed...will check out more of your videos really soon....good look with your Mera adventure 🙏
Welcome aboard!
I did the trip to Leh and there's no way people can adjust to the altitude in a couple days. It really is an incredible experience but I would say to people plan to take your time. If you don't you'll get headaches, dizziness sleepless nights. Thanks for the wonderful video!
Thank you for taking some time to explain some cultural items like prayer flags, and the prayer wheels.
Thanks - this was brilliant - very real - you nearly had me blubbing...always wanted to go to Base Camp but crocked with arthritis after years of running/walking so will never make it, but this was the next best thing....all that was missing was some Scratch and Sniff to transport me there! Watched it twice as I couldn't remember if I'd seen or heard any birds.
I’m so glad you enjoyed my film it really does mean a lot - unfortunately we didn’t see much wildlife and I’ll let you into a little secret. Some of the birds you can actually hear are sound effects !
But nonetheless, it truly is a magical place. Hope you can subscribe because I have a lot more adventures to come.
I have always been amazed by Mt Everest. I have watched different documentaries regarding Mt Everest Summit successes and unfortunate tragedies . I may not get the chance to experience Nepal or see Everest, but seeing your mini Documentary gave me a glimpse into the beautiful scenery, history &the colourful prayer flags ( wind horses)
Thank you so much 😊
A real pleasure - ironically at this exact moment I’m currently in Scotland making a new film for my channel. Hope you can subscribe hello from my tent !
