This morning at 5.30 am, we set out for the Thorong La pass, from high camp.
2 and a half hours later at 8 am we reached it – 5416 meters. The morning was beautiful and we all crossed safely.
Again it was not without dramas – I saw many people having to turn around, throwing up, being carried over by horses, etc. But fortunately the gang of people I had met all managed without major problems.
Now I am at 3800 meters relaxing, high on the experience, a bit sad that I soon have to leave Nepal – and very clear in my mind that I have to return and do a peak next time – I have a 6500 meter peak in mind 🙂
Anyhow, just wanted to let everyone know that I am safe and healthy.
Ohhh yeah I can see the drama of crossing on horseback.. Poor people… Or sensible people depending on your perspective..
But great to hear that your enjoying it and that you made it.
Please make a pointing picture for me at the first chance…
