Trail near Kimche

I'd like to say that our final day on the trek was one of gentle reflection with a bittersweet reluctance to reach the end of the trail. But no, it was all we could do to not run all the way to the taxi in Naya Pul.

The thing to do when in Ghorepani is to see the sunrise from Poon Hill. We did not do this.

Today was the biggest one-day elevation gain of the trip, almost a mile up in 8 hours. It also was not my best day: GI distress and lingering sinus issues from the Kali Gandaki windblown dust made for a not-so-happy trekker. But neither issue was cause for stopping, so we left Tatopani at 07:00 with the peak of Nilgiri our morning companion.
