After climbing to the Kuari Pass, we found ourselves inmerse in mountains and mountains of snow. Walking through the snow was lots of fun and lots of making photos. However, after the snow, came the mud, rocks, and difficult paths.
We finally made it to an spectacular campsite situated at about 3500 m of altitude, were you could see this amazing views. Mountain peaks covered with snow and clouds making them misterious and even more wonderful.
In the evening it started snowing, and apparently it snowed all night, cause I woke up at 5:00 a.m. with Paul stumbling the tent to get the snow out of the roof. It seemed Pual had waken up with the tent on his face. 6.8 feet isn't easy to fit in a tent, specially if it has crushed halfway down. So about 6:00 I woke up again to get the 20 cm depth of snow out, but from the outside with merely a stick.We woke up again at about 7 a.m. by Choki's voice offering us Chai in our tent. I thought he was telling us that tea was ready and we could go there at any time, but he had the tea with him and was waiting for us to open the tent to handed it to us. What a great gesture I thought.
So the morning was freazing, and once the sun came a bit through the clouds, I couldn't stay with my eyes opened as it was everything so shinny from the snow surrounding us. After breakfast our guide talked us about the bad weather conditions and that it could get worse so we all decided to go under the snow line and camp somewhere else.
