Wan to Bedni Bugyal 10/21/08

This is when we first get to find out what Bsim means by 'the trail is up up'. Because it was up, up to 11,656 feet to Bedni Bugyal. We walked up through amazingly large rhododendron forests. Yes, rhododendron forests. Where we were the rhododendron grow to the size of big pine trees here. I can only imagine what it looks like in the spring. This is also a hard day for me because I woke up with a head cold, and a dodgy tummy. Bed tea came at 0645 and Fiona was directly behind checking on us.

Walking along we come across a flock of sheep and goats and sit for a snack. I was watching the guys take particular interest in members of the flock, when it occurred to me they were picking out dinner. Indeed we had mutton two nights in a row.
