October 24 -beautiful Chumphu hike

Today we went on an incredible hike with our guide and our  driver. We hiked for seven hours along and above the Chumphu River. We hiked to the stupa (site where religious relics are housed) and ate lunch. Then I continued on a very steep hike to the monastery perched in the mountains. We stopped at the monastery where the guides made an offering and then we continued hiking up to a beautiful lake and many waterfalls. This climb was the most difficult in terms of height while ascending and descending. The guide kept telling me to not look down while I was climbing and I didn't. The path was so narrow and I felt like there was no room for me to make mistakes so I just looked ahead. Of course, I loved the adventure. When it was over!!
