Itinerary description
|
Until the Lauribina Pass (4,610 mts) the weather was good. From the pass, the descent was under fog and snow. Descent to the village of Sisiphu in the rain, which has been intense from the Phedi shelter (3,730 mts).
We stayed at the home of a peasant family.
From Sisiphu (1,950 mts), the next day, we go down to Ghyangphedi (an hour's drive) and take a bus to Kathmandu.
We have managed to avoid the bad weather and the snow storm that has affected the upper part of the path that goes down to Kutumsang and that would have surprised us. If we hadn't taken this shortcut to Sisiphu we would have been stuck in the snow on the mountain.
