Sleeping
in high altitude is a challenge – everybody here is tossing and turning through
the night, but I must have slept, because I woke up to bright sunlight – ready to
go down……..well, to be perfectly honest, it won’t be just down, it will be
another up and down, just a different way then we came in. Today we will
descent 900m. Though we have learned to be suspicious of what our guy says in our guide book!
Later:
It was a long hard day, the weather threatened to go bad on us any time (never
really did though it was windy and cold, but it stayed dry – pretty much…) – we
had no lunch on top of it. We made it to the suggested village of "Phorte" hungry,
dirty and cranky, but found a good warm lodge with lots of French trekkers…………………man,
the potatoes are taking a long ass time: I AM HUNGRY!!!!!
