The IMG team heads up the valley towards Bimthang (Gyalzen Dorje)
The IMG Base Camp team reached Dharapani safely with food and supplies, and met with the mule team. Now they are moving north and east, arriving at Bimthang (about 3800m) yesterday. Next up is a crossing of the long and high Larkya La pass (about 5125m) which divides the Annapurna Region (to the west ) from the Manaslu Region. Once over the pass they will be dropping down to Dharamsala (4460m). Another couple days on the trail with the mules and they will arrive in Samagaon, at the base of Manaslu.
