In the mountains





What had been far away was now near. I got up at 6 AM and climbed above the town, seeking first light. It was hard to imagine that with a drive and one day's climb, the mountains looked more attainable. We had numerous days to go, and we could set our sites on our destination. There is one mountain known as Fishtail that is particularly looming, The stories are that this peak has never been officially climbed, and the mountain is considered holy. The other peak shown above is Annapurna South.
