Everest: A Trekker's Guide: Trekking routes in Nepal and Tibet
A good guide for the standard route to Everest Base camp and also covers the approach from the Tibetan side as well as Nepal. Unfortunately since independent trekking is off limits at the moment the Tibet section is little more than extra weight for those not on a group organized trek. If you are just planing to do the standard base camp or Gokyo Valley this is a good option. It is also available in ebook Kindle format unlike the Trailblazer guide, which is great for saving weight. Unfortunately it does not cover the region as well as the Trailblazer guide, it spends its pages giving more detail on the standard routes instead of supplying more detailed information about interesting side trek options. But as an ebook option for someone planing to do the standard route with addition of Gokyo its a great option. Treks covered: Nepal: Jiri to Namche, Gokyo Valley, Thame (Bhote Valley), Everest Base Camp, Tibet: Tingri to Everest Base Camp, Kharta to the Kangshung Face.
