Will be covering the updates about the Earthquake from mountains in this post (appologies for typos/grammatical mistakes!).





The Earthquake location. 40km Southeast of Manaslu, 210km west of Everest.

An earthquake, measured as M7.9 on Richter scale, 29km ESE of Lamjung (which translate to 40km SW of Manaslu and 210km west of Everest) wobbled the region as far as Delhi in India. While it's too early to estimate the situation in remote areas of Nepal, the mountaineers at Everest BC were quick to update about the events.

Everest Southside Avalanche:

Romanian climber Alex Gavan tweeted about a huge avalanche coming down Pumori and reaching Everest southside BC. "Running for life from my tent. Unhurt. Many many people up the mountain," the message says it all. Not everything is smooth in the area.





Everest Northside Trembled but Safe:

Adrian Ballinger tweeted about rockfall and avalanches from Everest Northside, however, without any damage. "Lots of rock and ice falling. We all ok. Hoping more exposed South Side also ok."





The earthquake is as always followed by aftershocks. "Strong aftershocks continuing here on North Side of #Everest," says Adrian.
