Actually, after completing this intense climb, any relaxation following such an experience can be considered luxury. To paraphrase Jen's sentiments, the effort expended each day on trails and the adventure in general, have proved to be a daily blessing.
As we commence, the sun has not influenced life at ground level, yet.
Walking down a steep mile to reach the bridge in order that we can reverse our direction upwards. Nature is not always considerate.
Machupachare is ghost-like in the distance. Not a bad sight to view each day.
Part of the Annapurna also in view.
More mountain but the bridge in view providing perspective.
We reach a position at which we are able to view Begnas Lake.
Jen just crossed the bridge on return and climbing steeply, for a change. Rupakot Resort sits on the mountain at rear.
Looking through another beautiful Nepalese blossom tree.

A good perspective of the bridge across Rupakot Lake.
From the patio of the resort, we view both lakes, Rupakot (left) and Begnas.

Below is a video of some of the highlights, including Jen's partial path to the peak. It was a wonderful experience, yet again, as we changed direction and did something different from the previous occasion.
