DAY 16

One of the longer foot bridges. The large Army checkpoint here is no longer manned

Most of the day was on the old trail or on new detours around road construction

On this stretch the trail went through the road construction. There was one spot where there was 2-3 places just big enough to place your feet with nothing but sheer drop between the spots.

Old building with detailed woodwork

We are back down in the warm air. No more yaks, just water buffalo

More road construction. All by hand

View north from the roof top of the Himalaya Hotel

Cocktail time and tomorrow he will rest up in the hot springs.

             

Again, a constantly changing view

 

Nice weatherproofing on the feed horn
