The Juice Box Heroes delayed in Laya

Posted on October 30, 2026 | Cybercasts

A glacial lake outburst has triggered flooding in parts of Bhutan, impacting the Laya Road. Our team is currently scheduling alternative transport back to Paro. The Juice Box Heroes are safe and healthy; we are in close contact with Vern and the team via satellite phone. Communication between climbers and their loved ones may be limited at this time due to cell service outages. We’ll continue to update the cybercast as their plan evolves.
