After 3 days of, essentially, sitting around it's finally time to stretch the legs a little bit. Alun and Lauren got back from their hike over the Cho La Pass yesterday afternoon and were very enthusiastic about the route. After some Skype chat with the fam, a little milk tea and just a little time to let the sun warm things up above 20F outside I'll set off for Macherma. That should take me most of the day today and from there it will be up to Gokyo with a side venture up the Gokyo Ri tomorrow and from there back across the pass to Pheriche. Monday morning, east coast time, I should be back in communication with updates on the hike, some good pictures and, hopefully, a spirit ridded of cabin fever.
