We spent the descent sliding on our backsides in the thick snow!

After the dizzy heights of Thorung La we expected the rest of the Circuit to be less impressive. How wrong we were! The scenery changed from icy frozen tundra, valleys and peaks to dusty, rocky wasteland. If anything it was even more impressive passing through the old kingdom of Mustang with it's squat stone houses and villages, the Kali Gandaki (deepest canyon in the world), Muktinath temple complex, Poon Hill and the last days to Pokhara. No time to write more. It is something you just have to experience for yourself.
