I'm leaving for a four day trek in about three hours from now. The goal of the trek is the Indrahar pass (elevation 4320m). Today's part is only nine kilometers to Triund, but tomorrow will be a tougher day, if I understood the person who sold me the trip correctly. But I'll report the details after I'm back, makes more sense that way.
I postponed my trek with one day, because I was hoping to find some company. Unfortunately it didn't work out. It would have been nicer to share the trail with someone besides the guide and the price would have gone down as well. There's no complaining about the deal I made though. I'm paying 5500rs (about 70€) for three meals a day, three nights of tent or guesthouse accommodation depending on the weather, and a personal guide. Even though I was unable to find company, I'm very glad I waited a day. Yesterday evening a heavy thunderstorm hit us. I'm glad I was in my room, even though it was mostly in complete darkness because of power outages. It rained heavily as well and during the night the rain came back. I'm hoping that was enough for the next couple of days, but I'm not very optimistic. It's raining right now. No worries, I'm well equipped and won't get wet so quickly. What I'm more worried about is not being able to see much from the top. What I've heard, the view is breathtaking.
Wish me luck! I'll be back on Tuesday.
