Eben and the team crossed the Thorung La (17769ft / 5416m) today and descended to Muktinath, where they were able to send some nice A4 photos from the climb.  Then, they continued on to Jomsom.  Sounds like the flight schedules are disrupted, as predicted, so it’s going to be Plan B for the team tomorrow. Phinjo has arranged seats on a bus to Beni and then we have arranged a van to meet them there for the ride on to Pohkara.
It should be a classic Nepal road trip!
