Kanchen Gola Wild 2002 - high country exploring

After adventures in the middle hills we acclimatized at Yangma and then explored higher.
We went literally off the map to the top of the trading pass with Tibet, not everyone making it
the first time so we mounted a second trip there for the trekkers while the climbers explored
a hill that had more challenge than we expected.

Here was our wonderful base camp on a grassy plain with mountains ringing us.
We ate breakfast and lunch outside, dinner in our warm dining tent.

An avalanche we witnessed from base camp.
