(Himàlaia) Route on 10/8/2014; 15 km; +1120 -660; 7 hours. Stage with the following itinerary: Samagaun, old Manaslu BC, Samdo. Output type: linear crossing; Difficulty: Moderate.
Today we start in the morning at 07:45, with extraordinary views of Manaslu. We have checked how we go from saturation of oxygen to the blood (with oxypulsimeters) and we are relatively well all. I am saturated with 93 and a few pulsations of 63. I begin with a stroke of history: the story near Tibet can be found in the 20th century. In 1904 the British, who had India as a colony, sent a strong military contingent and occupied Lhasa and thus forced the opening of the border between India and Tibet. Two years later, in 1906, they signed a treaty with China for which Tibet became a British protectorate. But the following year, in 1907, a new treaty was signed, between China, Great Britain and Russia where sovereignty over Tibet was granted to China. Until that moment, no one was asking anything about Tibetan people and foreigners were always those who made decisions about their land. The arrogance and arrogance of the empires has always been scandalous.
Let's get started. We are 3500 meters high. The idea is to go up to the Base Camp in Manaslu that is about 4900m, but I, in the end, I'll stay with what had been the old CB, about 4400 and I'll let the companions keep up. Then we will follow the entire valley, planning, to reach Samdo, about 3875 meters.
We are going up to the glacier. Always up, on a road ... ...
