Glacier Gangapurna: ally against altitude sickness

I do not know the other, but I stress me up for minutes. It's like that and it's time for truth and, on the one hand, want to face it sooner, and, other, want to run. At the moment, clear, I stay.

Day 7. Bhraga-Glaciar Gangapurna- Manang- Bhraga. I do not know the other, but I stress me up for minutes. It's like that and it's time for truth and, on the one hand, want to face it sooner, and, other, want to run. At the moment, clear, I stay.

And, to acclimate the body to the days that come upon us, make an excursion to the glacier Gangapurna. Well explain this: when you move from 4.000 meters have to acclimate, say those who know, stopping at a considerable height, Manang is 3.550 at least a couple of days for the body adjusts to the lack of oxygen. But the best way to acclimatize is not to stop and stay on the site, but rather, if possible, gain a little more and go back down on the day. So we went to the glacier, is as 4.200 meters, We have everything from there looking stunned and have become. For those who do not know-I, course, did not know-, glaciers are snow-capped. Masses of ice crystals that will not melt or summer. East Gangapurna is small, but beautiful. And we've been through a lake, This non-frozen, a stunning turquoise.

There is another option you bet a lot of hikers, that is to stop another couple of days, it is impossible to go back in 24 hours- and go on a short route to see the lake Tilicho, who has the honor of being, a 4.919 meters, over the height of the world. Here, say, years most of the access is impossible, and the rest of the time, no matter where, long, cold. And no accommodation. You get to the lake, you strip photos, Memorize Belleza su-he viewed fascinating- and you leave. It should be worth, because, and say, many do.

There are two things that must be noted in red this site: because you can find whatever you may need mountaineering equipment, and because this is the only clinic located throughout the area.

On the way back we see Quico. Is better, but still with fever. Be seen if we return to the way we do tomorrow or another day here. I do not mind, but firefighters come with the set time. In any case, before returning to heme Bhraga gone to eat Mananger. There are two things that must be noted in red this site: because you can find whatever you may need mountaineering equipment, and because this is the only clinic located throughout the area. I know it's going to need, but just in case.

Day 8, 9 and 10 are the final. Thorong arrive at over-La and start to descend more than five kilometers of altitude. I promised in the last entry that would tell you things of Tibetans today. We leave it to the next. Only, as an appetizer, I will say that on this seventh day, al dejar Manang, we have seen, so close that it still surprises me when I think-to three real vultures attacking each other with ferocity indescribable to see who would eat a freshly killed lamb. From this scene started on Friday, if quereis, and to see if, gaining momentum, we are able to cross the famous Thorong-La.
