Eastern Nepal Journal

Highlighted in Yellow is the ground covered on foot over one month.  The only exception being a 25 K ride I took from Hile to Basantapur.
 
My journal recording one month hiking accross virtually all of Eastern Nepal represents my most ambitious effort to capture my thoughts, mental progress and Nepali experiences.

What you see here covers 65% of this journey. The missing short 12 entries will be added in thee weeks when I return from another stint of backcountry exploration.

In the three weeks that have past since I returned from my first trek I have been hibernating in the Kathmandu valley and working on my web page.
