Poon Hill (Merry Christmas) (Nepal Post #3)

Pack-less we set out in the dark. Blue then grey then orange rose in the south.

to the north just stars, annapurna's bulk, and the sharp south peak.

We drank (too sweet) tea and watched the stars recede until the sun gilded the south peak

And spread onto Dhaulagiri

Hari and I clowned around (he's -5' so tough to get both of us and the mountains in a picture)

And we stayed until sun had warmed us properly before turning back to ghorepani.
