Ranked #3

1/10/2020

 
Traveling to a far land to undertake a major hike is always intimidating. Especially since I tend to go big on my first visit to a new region. But once I start hiking, it just feels natural. The mountains may be different, but hiking is still hiking.

However, the Himalayas are proving to be different from the rest.

After a short flight from Kathmandu. A two-day Jeep ride. A five-day hike to 5,143 meters. I was finally at the start of my trek - Kanchenjunga Base Camp.

I think feeling intimidated is perfectly reasonable when standing beneath the third highest peak in the entire world. Just damn.
