Walking towards Lubuche East Peak


After a good night sleep in Chukung we walked in the misty day to a town called Lubuche - under the peak Lubuche east (6090 meters).

The weather continued to be misty and snowy,so we decided to do some day hikes in the area, while waiting for the weather to get better. One our second day we decided to go to a glacier not far away and do some ice-climbing practicing on a glacier that is called 'wedding Cake':
The climbing looked scary from far away, but after a lunch-brake in a rock shelter the climbing didn't seem too bad.

We waited for the snowstorm to stop, but instead it only strengthened. After a heavy snowy night, we decided to go away.
Kagan and Ama Dablam (hopefully we will climb it in the future)
The next day it was a beautiful day with no clouds in the vaccinate:
While walking through the forests we saw some beautiful peasants (sorry - no pictures) and some wild deer
Last day together: Prem, Kagan and myself
We decided to take the Helicopter ride back from Syanboche
and from the landing strip - we took a bus ride (part of the way - on the roof) to Katmandu.
While trekking, We didn't get to many chances to take a shower. When We had a chance - we were always short of hot water. When we arrived in Katmandu kagan told me that while I shower - not to worry - I won't finish the hot water. When he went into the shower - there was no water in the taps of the hot water! After some shouting - Kagan also had a shower and we went to "Bet Habad" to celebrate "Shimhat Tora"
