Asia by Hammock

Left Gokyo this morning and had a chill, mostly downhill stroll. I can feel the extra O2 and what I originally took for really fucked up rocks are in fact rhodondron and pine trees, things I haven't seen for a while. The trail followed a river from the Ngozumba with little villages and terraced stone walled fields on each side of the valley. I thinkt the other valley offers a more impressive skycape, but there are certainly less tourists here and theres a lot of appeal to waterfalls cascading off rocks beneath the snow capped peaks.
