Tried to dig out the photo of me trying one of our porters' packs - sorry I don't have it in digital form. In a nutshell, big (6'2" 16st) guy collapsing under a stack of rucksacks that 1 tiny porter had run up the mountain with it all strapped to his head...
Off to Kathmandu!

I have been using a light icebreaker tshirt this summer and it is as you say fantastic. We intend taking one maybe two icebreaker tops each.
Edited to add, I currently have the Atlas t.shirt which is great for summer but probably not warm enough for winter. I am looking at the Oasis Crew long sleeved which is currently on sale at Go outdoors. Any views on that one?

I took one Icebreaker thin/long-sleeve and a thicker one with a neck zip along with some cotton t-shirts.
Next time I'll be taking a Craghopper shirt (synthetic) for the warm days and both merino shirts, maybe one cotton t-shirt to wear in the Irish bar in Thamel.
