The Anna Purna Circuit - The Only Way is Up

---

We Crazy People only rested a few days before starting 16 days Around Annapurna trek. This trek is famous in Nepal for having the best views of the Himalayas, the most interesting variety of landscape. The first half of the trek was a slow and steady ascent and we hit snow in Manang, unusual for this time of year, and there had been avalanches before our arrival.
The highlight was the ascent to the dizzy heights of the Thorang La pass at 5416m. Crossing the pass we had to start at 4am for the 1km ascent in the dark under the stars. By the time we got close to the top the altitude obviously affected our thinking as it was on this pass that the two of us got engaged!

you must have been there just a day or two earlier than I did: http://www.flickr.com/photos/buddhamountain/70568746/in/set-1522295/ Look at the brown patches where the snow went down.
