Kala Patthar

Description

Kala Patthar is one of the highest and most accessible trekking peaks in the Khumbu and one of the most spectacular viewpoints for Mt. Everest and Lotse. At 5648m (18,530 ft.), it would be a huge peak almost anywhere, but in the Khubmu, you're still more than 3000m (10,000 ft) below Everest!

The route itself is a simple hiking trail, fairly steep and well marked. Sometimes it's got some snow, but usually not by March. You could do a round trip, but I'll leave it as an ascent since most people will want to stick around up top and admire the view.

Beach to El Toro summit

I'm submitting this route which I completed last weekend in less than 6 hours and expect some of you out there to decimate my record in half.  
El Toro is the highest summit on the East side of the Island and the highest summit of El Yunque rainforest.  
This route starts on the Ocean at La Pared beach, more specifically right in front of La Tintorera sculpture.  Why this sculpture?  Because it is an obvious landmark point of reference to start.
