Thanks bistro, that's a pretty good gear list they have on their website. And yeah, I've been to my doctor already to get fully immunized and have prescriptions for diamox, malaria (for the jungle), and some traveller's diarrhea pills. Thanks medicsandy. Can anyone speak to how much I might expect my feet to swell at altitude? It seems like it's one of those things that's difficult to plan for... just don't want to get over there and find my boots don't fit anymore.

Hi there, I'm heading to Nepal in April and will be climbing Island Peak and have a couple questions I'm hoping someone can help me out with as I've never been to 6000m before. 1) How much can I expect my feet to swell at altitude? I wear a size 41 boot over here, and it fits perfectly but am wondering if my boots will become too tight once I'm over there. 2) Do you think that the La Sportiva Nepal EVO would be sufficient for Island Peak in April, or would a double boot be a better choice? I appreciate the help, thanks all!
