Nepal Trek Tour...Need a fourth person for trip

Hi All,

My wife and I and a co-worker of mine have signed up for an REI sponsored trip to Nepal’s middle Himalayas on their “Nepal’s Royal Trek” tour (http://www.rei.com/adventures/trips/asia/nepal_royal.html) for early Spring, 2011.  There is a minimum sign-up requirement of 4 people before REI will confirm and run this trip and since we’re already heavily invested in this trip (non-refundable airfare, hotel reservations, gear, etc.), we are looking for at least one more person who may want to do this trekking tour with us.  We’re signed up for the February 28th to March 15th, 2011 trip.  This is the trip we need you to sign up for as well so that we can meet the minimum for this trip to run.  They only offer early Spring or late Fall timeframes.  REI says that these dates have been chosen for the best weather conditions for that area.  Apparently the late Spring and Summer timeframes have monsoon rains.  If you have ever wanted to explore this region of the world and don’t want to deal with the extreme altitudes of something like Mt. Everest, please read all about this trip and sign up through REI Travel at http://www.rei.com/adventures/trips/asia/nepal_royal.html or call them at 1-800-622-2236.  We really want to do this trek and would hate to lose all we’ve invested just because we couldn’t meet the minimum person requirement.  Thank you in advance for signing up; we really do appreciate it and expect that this trek will produce lifelong memories for all of us.
