The Bumpy Ride from Beshishehar to Sangey, Nepal

Posted on October 1, 2013May 10, 2021

These days as I have started playing around with videos I am looking at my old folders as well. I remember this bumpy ride from Beshishehar to Sangey really well. It required a strong back, it was that bumpy.  Sangey could be one of the starting points of Annapurna Circuit Trek in Nepal. Many people feel…

A Collection of All My Annapurna Circuit Trek Posts

Posted on July 21, 2013February 15, 2022

I tried to trek through the Annapurna Circuit in Nepal in June 2013. I reached as high as Letdar (4200 meters). It rained a lot from Manang onward. The continuous snow at Letdar finally convinced us to turn back and give up on the trek. It is always sad when I cannot complete a trek,…

Morning at Timang, Annapurna Circuit Trek, Nepal

Posted on July 19, 2013May 12, 2021

Timang is a small village on the Annapurna Circuit Trek in Nepal. I reached there while walking back after a lot of bad weather at Letdar. The sky was almost always overcast throughout this trek. The night I was at Timang was exceptionally clear and the entire range was bathed in moonlight. I was just…

Annapurna Circuit Trek, Nepal- The Retreat, Day 9 Humde to Timang

Posted on July 18, 2013May 12, 2021

If the weather would have cooperated with us we would have on the other side of the Throng La pass by now. But after the snow at Letdar we decided to walk back. I was looking forward to reach Chame because my cell phone would work there. I was looking forward to all the calls…

Annapurna Circuit Trek, Nepal- The Retreat, Day 8 Letdar to Humde

Posted on July 17, 2013February 15, 2022

If you do the regular Annnapurna Circuit Trek you will not be doing this. You would be walking to high camp at 4800 meters after Letdar. However weather had other ideas for us. When I got up I could hear the rain, once again, before I saw it. Even though it was not snowing anymore…

Annapurna Circuit Trek, Nepal- Day 7 The Snowfall at Letdar

Posted on July 16, 2013February 15, 2022

On day seven my trek started deviating from the proposed itinerary. I was supposed to walk to the high camp (4800 meters) on day 7 and on day 8 we would have crossed the Thorang-La pass if things went according to plan. But they didn’t. I got up early in the morning and went to…

Annapurna Circuit Trek, Nepal- Day 6 Manang to Letdar

Posted on July 15, 2013February 16, 2022

As it was raining when I went to sleep, I wondered if walking from Manang to Letdar would be in pouring rain. When I got up I could hear the rain before I could see it. But when you have to go you have to go! So I got out and went about having an…

Annapurna Circuit Trek, Nepal- Day 5 Rest and Acclimatization Day at Manang

Posted on July 13, 2013February 15, 2022

Even though it was a rest day, I still woke up at 5.30 am and looked out of the window. And after just one look, I went to sleep again, it was completely overcast, not a patch of color that I usually associate with the sunrise or the morning sky! I eventually woke up at…

Pisang to Manang, Nepal

Annapurna Circuit Trek, Nepal- Day 4 Pisang to Manang

Posted on July 11, 2013February 15, 2022

In May 2012 when I was flying out of Lukla after the Everest Base Camp Trek there were posters all over the place saying, “See you in Manang.” Well, there I was, at Manang. When I woke up at 5.45 in the evening it was completely overcast and the wind was howling all around. When…

Annapurna Circuit Trek, Nepal- Day 3 Chame to Pisang

Posted on July 10, 2013February 15, 2022

After a good rest and 2 chapatis and an omelet for breakfast I was ready to start for Pisang. There was no rain when I started off, the route as usual was beautiful. As usual there were clouds. I was a bit optimistic as I had a relatively easy time walking from Dharapani to Chame….
