After 12 hours on the worst jeep road imaginable the entire team has reunited again in Pokhara. Four days prior half of our team had set off into the mountains to assess the damage of villages that had currently been checked off as being ok. Their findings were far different from the previous teams report. Many of the villages had only received one small food drop to be rationed between thousands of former residents. Our team has joined forces with some of the most inspirational and tenacious athletes here in Pokhara and will continue to hike into the remote villages to provide hard intel to the head of aid distribution. I can only hope that we will look at this relief effort as a long term project. Nepal will not be rebuilt overnight, but brick by brick, day by day this country will rise again.
