Day 6 - Langtang to Kyanjin Gumpa

We start off as usual in good sunshine and the route is mostly a pretty gentle gradient which brings us to the end of the treeline and the valley has become much more barren and rocky.

By about 10 it starts to get very windy and a low cloud settles in so we take refuge at a little hut whilst the group recombines. After a quick hot lemon tea, we set off for KG only to get caught in a snow storm as we arrive. The rest of the day is spent in the common room - chatting, reading, tea, supper etc.

An increasingly common sight - the group relaxing in warm clothes in a teahouse common room 

The weather in the afternoon remains pretty poor with quite a bit of snow falling which raises a bit of concern for our summit tomorrow. This is heightened when people arrive back from the trek with a range of horror stories about the weather and the conditions on the mountain - but its a fairly easy walk so we should be able to cope with it.
