Day 11 of Trek
April 12, Gokyo Lakes (15,720 ft.)
A day of peaks, glaciers and lakes. We ascend gradually for 2 1/2 hours to a crossing of the Gokyo River. After we reach the first of the three Gokyo Lakes–a sudden and marvelous shift in the Himalayan landscape–the trail begins to level out. We’ll camp beside one of the lakes.
Oh boy, do I wish I could have brought a guitar along…
