Advice for Everest Virgin...

I am coming to Everest Base Camp on a Trek in Feb 2009. Some people are advising me to delay until May because of the weather. Can anyone give me their opinion from experience?

It was already very cold at Lobuche in late November

Hi





Personally, I would delay until May. You will have a good chance of clear days then.
