High Camp (4850m) - Thorong La Pass (5416) ==> 2:40
Stop Thorong La Pass ==> 0:33
Thorong La Pass - 1st village lodge closed (open only lodge in season) (? m) ==>
break 2:05 ==> 0:17
first village ... - Muktinath before entry (? M) ==> 0:33
waiting ==> entry before 0:08
Muktinath - Muktinath (3800m) ==> 0:11 Break with Australian
for everyone waiting ==> 1:53
In fact, there was a Buddhist temple at the entrance Muktinath, Nepal and stopped there and waited there for latecomers.
Suddenly, it gets a good beer, it was well deserved.
The troupe in full (except Chinese which traced without saying anything, how wild), each made his plans. The Nepalese offer me to go with them by jeep until Tatopani where some will continue the trek and other take up another jeep Pokhara. That would gladly follow them, but this trek is one of my big goals, so I'm doing it all on foot. Sorry, good road guys. So I leave

Muktinath (3800m) - Jharkot (3550m) ==> 0:30
Jharkot - Khing (3355m) ==> 0:34
Khing - Kagbeni (2800m) ==> 1:18, I finished the night and I do not know too by what road I went into the village. I am happy again and have a beer the way of Saint Jacques de Compostela (initials go with my day)

After Khing, we have a beautiful view of the pass
After Khing, we see the cave houses in valley.

Arrived at this altitude (in 5000), we can not do 2 things at the same time as eating and breathing. Girls, do not bother to make remarks that I am a boy and I can not do one thing at a time. Where to normal heights (0 to 1500m), we do not pay attention to our breathing, and if we miss one, it does not matter. Here, just the fact to miss one, you stop to regain your breath and you refocus on your breathing.

21 kms today
Target tomorrow to continue like this.
