Day 2 - Sun June 10, 2007 : Chasapani [2194m] - Magin Goth [3285m]

We were woken at the 6 AM. We sipped our tea then washed our faces. The breakfast was already ready. We had delicious biscuits and more tea, and left the hotel at around 7:15 AM. It was raining so the trail becomes sleepy and the environment was too cold. We went down, down, down, first so wide as if it was road for vehicles for the few steps, later on a narrow winding trail steadily losing altitude.

After 1 hr. we crossed a few easy streams then the down trail was over. The trail is now to the upper hill and was little difficult. At around 11 AM we reached Chipling (m) but the trail was still long to cross.

We had junk foods in the way but we were still too hungry. A few places we had scrambled a bit, and find our own way across to stay and have lunch. At around 1 PM we reached the hotel and requested to prepare lunch. We all wash off some of the sweat and spent our time with...




After sometime we had carbohydrate-filled delicious lunch. The meal consisted of rice, Daal and potatoes. Soon it was time to pack up; finally we left the hotel, and went through another sloppy road. After some time, we crossed the small village and begin the much difficult journey in hilly road. We reached another small village called ( m) at 4 PM but that wasn’t our that day’s destination we need to walk some more hours. After sometime our way enters to the Lang Tang National Park. It was raining very heavily and trail is becoming sleepy. We were hungry but there was not any places to have food. So we had some chocolates and Kaju.

It was already 6:30 PM and darkness is falling down to the earth but we were unknown of our today’s destination. We were too tired but inside the big Forest nothing was visible with that thick forest and we were afraid of the wild animals. We do not have even the water to drink. After a while we reached an open space and look to the up, we saw a Buddhist flag at the top of the hill and make the guess that may be a hotel. With a positive hope we started to walk little faster.

It was totally dark but we continued with the small torch. At 7:30 PM we reached the place with the previously seen flag. Thanks God!!! That was a small hotel and we safely reached that. Our tiredness is clearly seen in the faces.

We wash off out tiredness and had a tea in a big glass. At around 8:30 PM the Kitchen was ready with a good dinner including daal, rice and potatoes. Immediately after dinner everyone were in bed.
