Hi everyone, What is the weather like from mid to late September around the Lhasa area and the base camp of Mt. Everest? Would it be cold at night?
We were in Tibet during May, so I suspect the temperature patterns would be similar in September. The sun goes down, the temperature drops very quickly. The thin air just does not seem to hold any heat, and it does get quite cool and windy, even in Lhasa. Everest - quite cool, even in the day time. Base camp on the Chinese side is around 5200 m. Strong wind too. The day we were there, it was sunny and the temperature was in the mid-teens, so all I wore was my Gore-Tex jacket to break the wind. My hat, gloves and polar fleece were in the car, and I did use them at other times on the trip.

Nope - that was a previous trip when we did Hong Kong / Guilin / Xi'an / Bejing / Macau, and our youngest daughter was just shy of turning 2 on that one. I've got a picture of her in a backpack on the Great Wall somewhere. The Tibet trip was just the two of us (one of those "special" anniversaries) and we did Shanghai / Chengdu / Tibet (and no, our daughters have not forgiven us for not taking them).

If you check in the Tibet forum, I think you will find that the answer is no. From all reports, Chinese officials are... more
