Trekking to biggest mountain in the world!
A typical village in the rural areas around Jiri. |
Follow the red circles and route finding is very easy. These suspension bridges are dotted all along the paths. |
First glimpse of some mountains. |
Beautiful girl offering me her chewing gum. |
Crossing the Lamjura Pass at 3530 metres - our first snow storm and a warning of how quickly the weather can change in the Himalayas. |
There is no such thing as flat ground. Constantly uphill and downhill through the many valleys like this one. |
A huge load of around 60kgs. These guys are seriously tough. |
The stepped appearance of terraced farming; very popular in Nepal to make the best use of land. |
Just after completing the first big pass; Kongma La at 5500 metres. |
Utterly breathtaking! It almost doens't look real. Well done for surving it Matthew
