Today was a long day and fairly challenging. It was also warm and about as humid as a sauna. We were all dripping wet all day.
The views, however, got increasingly amazing as we hiked up the Buri Gandaki gorge.
We stopped at Lapu Besi. Besi, by the way, means gorge. There are many places here named xxx Besi. This evening, for example, we are at Khorlabesi. At lunch, we were at Machhakola. That translates to "Peace River". Kola means river.
Although the monsoon is supposed to be over, it just pelted down at times during the night. Not sure how long it takes for systems to move out around here, but it hasn't been all that nice since we arrived other than for a couple of days.
