Day 10
- Views from the Top
Nice, but you wouldn't want to live here

The combination of fatigue and headache make the experience
of summiting at Thorung La a strange mixture of emotions. Because Thorung La is
a saddle between high peaks rather than a real summit, it doesn't feel like being
at a high point visually. Other high peaks are on the horizon. That alpine moonscape
common to all high mountain ranges is everywhere. But losing the throbbing headache
would be really nice. Hey, which way is down?
