Breathless in Nepal: Coverage of Nepal 2000 Charity Trek

At 21,250 feet, Mera Peak's summit is the highest mountain in Nepal that can be reached without technical climbing skills. Breathing becomes difficult approaching the summit of Mera Peak mimicking the primary symptom of Pulmonary Hypertension--sustained breathlessness. Pulmonary hypertension is a life-threatening disease that makes it difficult to breathe. It typically attacks children and women.

This unusual trek has spectacular views of Mt. Everest and her neighbors. Coverage of this little-visited and still unspoiled region of Nepal will include views of the Hinku Valley, one of the wildest and most beautiful in Nepal. One hundred percent of the net proceeds generated by the trek will be used for medical research to find a cure for pulmonary hypertension.
