Unsure if we’ll make it, we set off early. Long and tough climbing first up – 3280 (allegedly) stone steps. Pauses for tea and water, but exciting glimpses of Annapurna through trees.

We stagger through to Deorali and find the Mountain View guesthouse and a room with a view, hot water and a comfortable bed. Wrapping up warm, we scout the place out, finding Noel, Jess and Dave. Nice buzz to the place a surprisingly well stocked.
