Another ice-cold night mastered. With double blankets! ;) Slept well and my knees recovered too. At least to the point that I could use 'em for today's 4 hours of ups and mostly downs. As we slowly make our way out of the Himalayas we loose altitude bit by bit. Which is good because the days and nights are getting warmer again. Early afternoon we arrived in Jhinu and got rewarded for our tough Trek with a visit to the cozy hot springs down by the Modi Khola River.
Wieder eine eiskalte Nacht gemeistert
. Mit zwei Bettdecken! ;) Gut geschlafen und meine Knie erholten sich auch. Zumindest soweit, dass ich sie heute fuer 4 Stunden Auf- aber meistens Abstiege benutzen konnte. Auf unserem langsamen Weg aus dem Himalaja verlieren wir nun Stueck fuer Stueck an Hoehe. Das Gute daran, die Tage und Naechte werden nun wieder waermer. Am fruehen Nachmittag kamen wir in Jhinu an und wurden fuer unseren harten Trek mit einem Abstecher zu den heissen Quellen unten am Modi Khola Fluss belohnt.
