Itinerary description

IMPORTANT NOTE: THE DIFFICULTY WITH WHICH I CATALOG MY ROUTES IS REFERRED TO MOUNTAINS USED TO WALK, WHO UNWIND THEMSELVES ON EVERY LAND, NOT FOR OCCASIONAL HIKERS. IF YOU HAVE LITTLE EXPERIENCE, ADD ONE MORE DEGREE TO THE DIFFICULTY OF MY ROUTES SO YOU WILL NOT GET SURPRISES

Short stage (it needs to be like this to acclimatize better).
In my case it was good for me because I caught a strong gastroenteritis that gave me the day and practically did not let me walk since I had to constantly stop to look for a corner where to plant a tree (this made it a very hard stage for me, but objectively it is obvious that it is not, rather the opposite)
There are many people who continue to the next settlement with lodgings, Letdar, or there are even people who go up to Thorung Phedi. You have to assess whether it is worth gambling with the issue of acclimatization.
By the time we got to Yak Karka, the afternoon had already closed and shortly afterwards it began to snow, a foreboding of what would await us the next day. Luckily, on the key day of the Thorung-La Pass, the day was incredibly good (an island of good weather among all the bad weather we had in general in this part of the trek, if not all of it)
The GPS failed me at the end of the stage so I had to stop recording after a certain point and the track was incomplete. I have created a new full stage manually.
