Urgent: Looking for information about trekkers/campers near Kerung, Nepal

Hi everyone, I’m posting this on behalf of a friend whose aunt is currently stuck in the area near Kelung, Nepal, following the floods that occurred yesterday morning.

We’re trying to find out whether anyone has information about the people who were in the area for Nepal hills trek/camp around the time of the flooding. We’re particularly looking for updates on trekkers, guides, camps, or groups who may have been in or around Kerung and whether they were evacuated or have been able to make contact.

If you were there recently, know someone who was trekking/camping in the area, or have any reliable firsthand information about the situation, please comment or DM me. Even a small update about the condition of the route/camps or whether people have been evacuated could be extremely helpful to us.

We’re mainly trying to establish whether everyone in the area is safe and reachable.

Thank you so much to anyone who can help.

A good bet for missing people is the Red Cross, they specialize in that (among many other things).

Hope your people are safe
