About Latrambheswor

Hike members: Aashib,Binit,Kabin,Kiraj,Sajan,Neema,Sarju,Rakshya,Rabi, Priyanka.

It’s been a month since we have not traveled or trekked after the Tso Ropla trek. I was willing to for a short ride and as per our plan we were planning for the Dunga Nagari ride but due to busyness among us this plan has been postponed yet now but we will be executing it soon. For the compensation ride we plan to travel to the new viral destination of Nepal .ie Latrambheswor here we will reach via bike ride and a short hike to reach the destination. I was so excited for the ride because I was in a very depressive mood condition even due to monotonous work I was in much need to have refreshments. Many changes and losses have occurred in these few months but consoling myself that everything happens for a reason. We can’t erase or edit our role which is written in our scripts of life which has to occur in a time as per script. We should just accept it and the performance of life should go on even being harsh to accept and forget it.

I was willing to be part and eagerly waiting for the execution of this ride to have peace and refreshments after tragic incidents that causes disturbance in my mind and soul.

Here goes my experience one day ride and hike to Latrambheswor.

I was excited for this ride and hike due to which I was sleepless for a whole night and just wait for the morning so that I can’t depart for a ride. I was feeling good to visit a new destination which is viral these days. I was unknown about this but my pals were much more information about this destination. At 630am I was picked up by Kabin but we have to return to his home for a raincoat and after getting it moved to Dudhpati where the rest of the pals were waiting for us. I get a call from Binit to be at the tea shop where Sajan and Neema were waiting for a gathering to begin our ride. As we meet them rabi and Priyanka arrived there and soon we had our light breakfast was having fun from the act of Sajan (ahahahahhaa) he was such a foodie that he used to have anything even his mind denied i.e. was enjoying the moments where I can see cheerfulness in everyone faces that makes me so good to be a part of this journey. Rashid was briefing us about the ride but we were in dilemma whether to follow the direction of the YouTube video or Google Maps. With votes of all of us, we decide to follow the google map means we were traveling Dakschinnkali road instead of the best and correct way i.e Chapagaun-Tikahabharab highway (one should travel this route for a better and time-saving ride).I was enjoying each moment due to the pleasant morning weather and good interaction with pals. I was sharing a ride with Kabin as we have had good bonding since we met in class 5 and till now we have a good sense of friendship I have seen his liabilities towards friendship during my depressive situations which occur in these months and days. I was feeling safe sharing a ride with him. As we begin our ride he begins his ragging in his own style in multiple languages. I was requesting him to stop it but he did not instead he speed up the speed along with raging which gave him full-on entertainment. We were following the rest of the pals and we were riding until and unless we reach Kausaltar where Sarju and Rakshya were waiting for us. Meeting him I just grabbed the helmet thinking that he has brought it from me. My excitement diminish when he told me that he forget to bring a helmet and this belongs to Raksha. I was embarrassed that I didn’t follow the rules that were strictly made by myself but even with a helmet, we resume our destinations. We were 10 members and it was for the first time we were traveling in a monsoon season before that we only used to travel in spring or winter season.Kabin was feeling sorry that he even forget to bring a helmet but he didn’t stop to entertain and ragged me. We move straight instead of taking the Chapagaun route where we took left from Ekantakuna to reach the big mart near Medciti hospital to buy snacks for us which we will have at our destination. We took our first-ever pictures of this ride and we were enjoying our moments with fun and ragging up going on with each other. I was feeling good to view happy and cheerfulness of my pals. Spending for 20 minutes we resume our ride, we were moving toward the west direction but I was unaware that we will reach Jalbianayak and then the Dakchinkali route which was as per our ride plan to travel via this route. I was aware of the route and even reminds me of the accidents that occurred in Kulekhani (due to the incidents I was missing the helmet) when we were returning from Hetauda which was our first ever ride after completing of master's classes. We were traveling via the Dakshinkali route and I was feeling that confusion among us was heating up about whether we were on the right or wrong route but as per Google Maps we were on the right track. At one point we stuck to exploring the google map and I was sure that if we move west we will reach Kulekhani so we get back and resumed the ride via the Dakshinkali kali route. We took left track from the Dakshinkali temple periphery where I felt that we were moving to another world. The road was dusty and tipper was frequently passing through us. We begin to get hyper for losing the right track to reach Thinggan but as per Google Maps, we were on the right track though we were on wrong track. We interact with the local owner of the crusher for showing us the right track, he request us to ride via another way to reach Tikabhairab and warned us that if we move ahead with what we were planning to go then we will reach Hetuada instead of Chapagaun. We get back to follow the routes shown by locals. We were getting irritating about not being able to find the right track. I was enjoying the dusty road and hyper conditions that made worrying about other pals. I was enjoying the ride because I haven’t visited this route before and the environment was so chilling that giving me peace in my mind to be in another world of Kathmandu valley. The sky was so clear and a plane flying over was so close that I can identify the airline name which I was informed to Aashib to view. Rabi and Sajan move ahead in search of a route, where we rest of the pals were waiting for them ragging each other. Rabi called us to get where they were, as we get there we found other riders even struggling for the right track thank god that we don’t have to move the head in search of the way as they confirm that right ahead there was a landslide so they suggest we to move to ahead via a suspension bridge to reach Tikabharab.

Without wasting time we cross the bridge before that we interact with the local about the right track and as per his directions we move ahead but not again we the took the right route but luckily we found the local we request him to show us the right track he escorts to the point where we might get confused to identify the right and as we saw the widen road confirmed that might me the Tika Bhairab so speed up the speed to reach there. As we were on the right track every cheered with joy. I was clicking the video for memory we were feeling relaxed to be at the right route after 3 hours of wander. being lost. As we reached Tika Bhairab we just had a very huge laugh, I found everyone had a clean face whereas my face was full of dust. Everyone had a very good laugh over me viewing my dusty critical conditions after riding from the dusty road of Burunchuli. While we were having side by side, we checked our bikes and bike servicing to avoid problems during whole day travel. Soon after the bike was checked we resume our ride. I felt so surprised to travel on such a wide pitch road which I haven’t expected in these remote areas. As we were traveling I got much more information regarding this highway. I was sharing my research about this highway with Kabin it is one of the oldest highways in Nepal which begins its construction in 1954(98 km long which connects Lalitpur with Hedtauda) by king Mahendra and was named after his mother Kanti RLDS. I saw the welcome board of Konjoyosam rural municipality one of the most remote areas of Kathmandu valley and often we called it Karnali of Kathmandu valley due to its remoteness and another unavailability of required infrastructures. Kabin objected by briefing because he saw electricity wire on the road I inform him that the core area doesn't cover the road or electricity. He was not satisfied with my bridging and to console him I requested him to view the topography and height of the road where it was constructed he was just surprised to view the high hills and road which has been constructed by exploiting the hills which he has not noticed before. Suddenly he stopped his bike because the perfect road turned into a muddy and narrow path with dangerous downhills he inspect the hills where and how the road was constructed. He was feeling oh my god and accept that yeah it can be said as Karnali he was feeling scared of road conditions but as per my research, I was confirmed that this road reached Hetadua via Makwanpur Gadhi. I was informed that the road might be in good condition where the hills were rock form and might be muddy and narrow where the hills were in soil form. I spoke to him about the slogan which was relatable to my life i.e "Difficult roads often lead to good beautiful destinations".

I was informing him that landslides frequently occur on this highway due to topography and other natural cause and I knew this from the articles which I had read in the newspaper. After a wide pitch suddenly the road turn to a muddy and narrow path die t which it was making difficult to ride and control the bike I was supporting him to ride with alertness because I saw the rocks were falling down which he has not noticed. I was informed that this road end point is Hetauda which will be passed via Makwanpur Gadhi. He was so surprised to hear it. He was feeling good to know the new route and information which he was unknown of it. I found he was satisfied with my briefing because he was really enjoying the ride. I was even feeling at peace to travel for the first time and knew that better roads and worst roads are part of life as well as travel which we have to pass through it to reach our destination. I was much motivated with this highway because at the point the way was so good that suddenly our speed rose up whereas at one point the road conditions were worst then automatically we slow down our speed to keep control to move on. I was comparing the road conditions with my life, we should keep on moving even if the living conditions were good or worst as same like that life or vehicles had to maintain speed as per the conditions of road or life. We should not stop life or vehicle movement which should go on to reach the destination. I was enjoying the ride recalling the moments we had before we were on wrong track and after on right track(on the wrong track we were in stress and whereas we were in peace to travel from the track). The highway was so good that everyone was enjoying the ride. Sajan shows me the place name called Kyalche which reminds us Tso Rolpa trek. At one point while we were descending Aashib lost his control so he fell off due to an imbalance road. Hurriedly Sajan move at him to get the stand and I even move at him whether to know he was fine or not. He shook his head which mean that he is fine and then we resue our ride until we reach Baguwa for our lunch. We reached Baguwa at 1130 am we were a the border of Lalitpur and Makwanpur which divides buy Bagamati river and joins by the Bagmati bridges. We stooped our bikes and begins our photoshoot. I took the first pictures of this ride. Before that everyone was laughing at me due to dusty faces which makes me unidentified for my pals who were having good laughs. I hurriedly clean my face to have my photoshoot and then stay quiet for a few minutes to enjoy nature. Aashib called us to have lunch listening to his call we moved to the dining table.

Everyone was so feeling excited to have because we were late as per our plan and even we were in extreme hunger. We had a very nice lunch which was beyond our expectations and we just enjoy the lunchtime with full-on happiness. After lunch rabi requested everyone to carry the bottle of water for a hike while we were filling the water suddenly riper caught fire this was my first experience viewing vehicles caught by fire the environment smells and covers with smoke which was making unusual to us. After packing everything we resume our ride before that we took our first group pictures for memory. We begins our ride for Thinggan which was 18 km from Baguwa. The road conditions were the same as before but not again Kabin begins to rag me and I was not responding to him because I was feeling serve pain in my mind due to the smoke of burnt tires of the tipper. I was requested to stop it to ride with peace but he was ignoring me instead he was making me rag than before until we reach Thingann. We were at a point where we should take the right form tha place named called Chapro to reach Lt.The road was off-road which making difficult for a rider to have control over the bike we have to travel around 30 minutes to reach the starting point of LT. At 1215 pm we reach the beginning point of LT we were shocked to view the hundreds of the bike which has been a park I thought we might be the only hikers to be hiking over there but I was wrong that I can view the other hikers were ascending the hill to reach the destination. We park our bikes and then get ready to hike we were unknown at the beginning point so we get returned to the place to interact with locals who told us to walk from the narrow alley of from maize farm. After getting we resume our hike at 1230 pm but the way was so narrow and uneven that we had to walk supporting each other to ascend the uphill alleys.

Nature was playing hide-seek with us weather changed frequently and as expected rain begins which creates difficulties for us but we didn’t care about the rain we kept on moving to save the time. At one point we meet other hikers who were resting and they seem exhausted from the hike. We were so late and we even walked so slowly that they informed us to walk fast so that we can reach the destination within time because we had to retuned back too. They even informed us that we might hunt by leeches as I heard the leeches I felt that I might be caught by a leech. We resume our hike with full fun enjoyment and raggings.I played my all-time favorite song ‘ Telusa Telusa’ and walked enjoying the song. I usually listen to this song in order to motivate myself that life is beautiful if we found peace in whatever we have that creates happiness. Walking for 30, minutes light rain turned to medium rain due to which we had to wear our raincoats. Everyone wears their raincoat which protects them from rain but I was walking without a raincoat which makes me wet but I was enjoying the rain listening to the songs which gained peace to my mind. Rain was getting heavy than before but we were keep on moving to save time. After minutes of rain, the rain goes down and down which creates a foggy environment that added peace to my mind and soul. I was walking ahead of other pals when I found Aashib was waiting for us to have a rest. I was feeling so peaceful to have foggy and cool and lightly windy weather which was ging me peace and relaxation. I was wishing to stay to enjoy nature but we had to move on to reach the temple. I had moved on even though I was not willing to move ahead and before moving I snapped the video of the weather for memory then I joined with pals.

But not again rain begins to rain as like before so we walk in a line so that we might mislead the way. Hikers were descending where we were ascending to our destination interacting with hikers about the way and view from the temple. We were walking with hikers from Hetauda who were enjoying their moments which created fun for us. The weather was changing frequently but we were keep on moving to reach our destination as far as possible. We heard the bell ring of the temple which makes us excited to reach the temple. I was alone and recalling the trek of Gosainkunda that I trek over there in 2011 because the way and environment were similar to the Gosainkunda trek route which makes me feel that I am trekking over there again. We reach the stairs which remind me of the stairs of Kalinchowk temple as it was built on a narrow path as like Kalinchowk with lengthy stairs from whwre one can see high hills and downhills. I was holding the bar of stairs to get down which making me scared. Other hikers were shooting videos from drones which makes us good to view the drone and its sound.Aashib was calling from the other side of the hills but I was not able to identify him due to the crowd of hikers over there. Hikers were shooting videos from drones which makes hikers too chant "shiva hail shiva".I was ascending uphills to reach our destination where most of my pals were there so I was walking hurriedly to be there. I was so tired that as reaching up there I just lay down and begins to listen to recover and enjoy the moments. At 250 pm we reach the destination which was crowded and the carrying capacity of the destination was out of capacity due to which hikers were getting down as soon they were ready after destination. I was feeling uneasy in my shoes as I put off my shoes I found that I was caught by Leech and my legs were full of blood which makes me disgusting and bad. The rest of the pals were chilling and enjoying our snacks but I wasn’t willing to have it due to the scarcity of water, where I found pals were enjoying their snacks with fun. I was viewing nature suddenly I saw an NAC airplane was passing and getting lost in the cloud this motivate me that we should keep on moving even weather don’t favor us because difficult road often leads o beautiful destination. I was chanting this slogan from the Tikabhairab because the path was the same as this slogan. I was so motivated by this Tikabharwab highway which can be compared to our life whether the road conditions are good or bad we should keep on moving for a better future and life.Aashib asked for a guitar from other hikers which makes the entire environment full of music and peace. The weather was getting clear than before so we decided to descend from the temple to get returned back home. We took our second group pictures before we get down. Eveyone was snapping their pictures for memories. Sajan was trying to make me happy because I was staying away from the group and as like in other treks he snapped pictures with me because he loves my fake smile and act.Aashib called me out to have pictures and I request Priyanka to snapped pc with Aashib because we were wearing the same dress code and she was so soured to view the same dress code. With lots of memory and pictures, we begin to descend and spend 30 minutes over there at 350 pm we descend from there in a line. We were raging at each other which was creating fun and so we decided to click our last group snapped at the stairs for last memories of Latrambheswor and we request one of the other hikers to snap our pictures. After clicking pictures, I move ahead where I meet one of the old junior lads of mount valley he was feeling good to meet as we were interacting with him in a good manner. Then suddenly I don't know what goes on with me I just felt an unconscious mind due to which I was walking alone getting away from pals. I was walking and listening to the songs getting lost in nature with music. I was trying not to recall the tragedy but the pain was hitting my mind due to which I was having an unconscious mind where my body was present but my mind was absent. I forget that I was with my friends and I was asking myself where I am and what I am doing over here. At one point I was standing viewing the view of hills and highway. I heard the tune of Telusa Telusa in the Newari version (Kera Kera cha gana –where are you my friends) hearing this tune I just get back to my previous memory I think I have regained my memory that my pals were behind me. I replied to him in the same tune (Ji thana Ji thana ma thaa kow waa-I am here please get down soon). Oh shit, I was standing at the endpoint of hills where I got conscious only after his voice tune . I do not know what's going on with me, I just feel unpeace in my mind which makes me timely unconscious frequently which is not good for me at this moment. I decide to walk along with my friend,

Sikles- Kapuche Lake- Kori Danda Trek 2020 DEC 24-30: First Ever Camping Trek.

Kori Danda-The midpoint of Nepal

About

Sikles 

Sikles, a nature boomed place, lies at an altitude of about 2000 m above sea level located in the Madi Rural Municipality, Kaski district. Sikles is one of the biggest Gurung towns in Nepal. Slopes encompass the spot: Parche Dada, Kori Dada, and Taprang Dada cast tones across the skyline. Around 700 homes make it one of the largest Gurung villages in Nepal with about approx 2500 residents. It lies in the north-east of the Kaski district beneath Lamjung Himal and Annapurna II, the eastern border of Namarjung VDC, south of Sildujure VDC, and west of Sardikhola VDC. The locals call their village ‘Chili’, a derivate of the Gurung word ‘Che-Leh’. which means ‘flat pasture’. The Gurungs, who were primarily agro-pastoralists, who settled here, must have chosen the area as relatively flat. Sikles is popular for its well-maintained ritualistic flair of traditional Gurung village. Village lanes are narrow and flanked by stone and mud houses traditionally grouped in a ribbon pattern. In the past, houses were roofed by pine planks, which are now slowly being replaced by slate stone and more recently by corrugated iron sheets. Most houses are two-storied with the upper floor mainly used as a granary and the ground floor left for kitchen and family living. Additional small houses called Tharpa are used for sleeping and downstairs for cattle. This village has its own micro-hydro plant of 100 kW since 1995. Sikles consists of 5 neighborhoods i.e. Sarva, Kongi, Harpu Lama, Dharpang, and Gairi Thar. Sarva Thar decides the dates to initiate different matters including the beginning of agriculture, different villages leveled rituals, and a seasonal rotation of cattle.

Kapuche Lake

It is another god gifted beauty of nature on the Kori Danda trek route as a side trip for a day hike from Sikles making Hugu Goth a rest point. All icy mass lakes in the nation are arranged 4,000 meters above ocean level however Kapuche ice sheet lake is remarkable in that it is perfectly found only 2,546 meters above ocean level, situated in Sikles village of Kaski district in Annapurna area. The temperature of the lake can arrive at freezing during winter, and the surface can transform into ice. The 0.12 Km2 lake is around 40 meters down probably the origin of the Madi River. The lake was named Kapuche by the locale Gurung people group living close by which implies  "Ka-ice or snow, Pu -break down of ice, and Che -landing on the plain land". Kapuche lake's journey likewise offers some incredible perspectives on the pinnacle of Annapurna alongside other Himalayan Mountains. Once in a while, a torrential slide brings snow from the inclines that land on the lake. The lake is in a quiet climate underneath the high mountains. This lake assembles chilly dissolve from Annapurna II, IV, and Lamjung Himal and it's the most reduced ice sheet lake in Nepal, lovely and even known as a virgin lake.

Kori Danda

The Kori Hill Trek is an astounding brief trek in which an unfamiliar and slightest visit trek route of Annapurna locale. It is camping to organize a journey. It is adjacent to Pokhara, found within the northeast of Pokhara valley around 40 km. Kori lies within the Annapurna locale adjacent to mount Lamjung Himal (6988m), Annapurna II (7937m), and Machhapuchhare (Mount Fishtail 6993m), and numerous more mountains. The elevation of the Kori journey is 3800m. Probably Kori Danda is the middle point of Nepal in case one see from east to west direction. Kori Danda, not at all like the numerous slopes of Nepal, isn't an enormous mountain but an idealized put to watch the finest view of Mother Nature. The slope is finely carpeted by knolls and distinctive sorts of blossoms include more excellence to the slope. From here one reaches Nyamla Pass which leads to Manang- one of the popular trekking goals in Nepal. As per the local people, it is accepted that Sota is the root of Gurung ethnic gather. It is where the birth of the Gurung ethnicity was born and spread over the nation. In case you spend more time looking around the put, you may still discover the remains of Authentic royal residences that stood centuries ago. 

"After 3 years I was visiting Sikles and this time I was traveling with my pals which was quite different than from last year's visit. On the last trip, I vow that the 3rd visit to Sikles will be with my pals, and as per words, I was traveling to Kori Danda for trekking making Sikles a hub point. Kori Danda trek is our most awaited trek that has been postponed since we get into lockdown caused by pandemic Covid-19. After waiting for several months finally, the lockdown has been cut off but still traveling was still unfavorable due to the need for PCR negative reports. We were planning to trek in Mangsir but we had to wait for another one month so that we can travel without any restrictions and  PCR negative report as per waiting we fixed our departure on Push 9 and ended up on Push 15 2077 (2020 Dec 24-30).

And this is how I begin my 6 nights 7 days Sikles-Kapuche Lake- Kori Danda Trek 2020."

Day 1 2020 Dec 24 Bhaktapur-Pokhara-Sikles

Early in the morning as I opened my eyes I just phoned  Anish and I was surprised that he picked my call in a single phone ring then he answered me that he had already woke up and getting ready to depart from Surya Binayak where we were getting our bus for Pokhara. I even called Aashib and informed me that he was getting ready too. After the phone call along with Rajan, we even get ready for departure. I found Rajan was not fully good because he had not to sleep to prepare documents in his copy due to the unavailability of a laptop. He was in worry whether to visit SS college or not and to clear his dilemma we called Aashib about bus departure time. As we know that there is plenty of time we decided to visit SS college to mee to his friends for handover the documents. Before departing we informed our parents that we were leaving for Pokhara. At 6:10 am we catch up on a bus for SS and we saw the Tahalka bus has just arrived at Suryabinayak.I informed Aashib that to reach there as soon as possible so that we meet on time. We reached ss at 6:30 am and as we get down from the bus we meet his friends and handover that documents this make Rajan so fresh than before. I was willing to visit Ss college premises because I haven't seen the building of it. I moved with his friends where Rajan was at the bus stop to wait for the bus and the rest of the pals. I found the premises was so good and staying there for a few minutes I returned back to back to the bus stop. But still, the bus hasn't arrived yet. We had to wait about 40 minutes to meet the rest of the pals.

At 7 am we begin our journey, I was so happy to be with them because we are on the way to Pokhara for our most awaited trek. We begin to share our last trek experiences and other stuff to utilize the available time. I was sharing my training experiences while we were passing from Kalimati to Balkhu (during my trek and tour guide training I used to walk from Balkhu to Nathm college premises which were one hour and 30 minutes walk and continue for approx 3 months). Last day I had my master's convocation (TU 46th convocation) on the TU exam controller office premises, Balkhu where we can still see the welcome gate for graduating students and I even informed them that certificate distribution is still on till Push 15. I was feeling so fresh because everything was going as per plan where we reached Kalanki at 7:50 am and I saw an underpass which reminds me to ride to Chitwan. I share with them about last year's Chitwan ride which was quite funnier because I informed them that last time while we were traveling for Chitwan unknowingly RabiG passes through an underpass instead of taking left for Nagdhunga which gives fun for Rajan Aashib and Anish.

7 teenagers joined us from Kalanki, they were even visiting Pokhara which increases the number of passengers on the bus. I was willing to listen to the songs, but the speaker on the bus was not working well. The bus was moving at a normal speed while descending from Nagdhunga check post. While we were descending we saw a very funny scene where 2 overloaded trucks were trying to overtake each other. It seems as if two of us were raging at each other which making us too fun for a few minutes. One of the trucks had to stop who was overtaking due to which we stuck in a traffic jam for a moment. After clearing the traffic jam we resume our travels, where we saw a tunnel which was under construction. Omg, at turning we were nearly going to hit by a truck but luckily truck driver driving agility washed out undesirable incidents. We feel so relaxed that we didn't get in accidents. We were still descending and at 8:30 am we had our tea break at Naubise. I wasn't feeling better because last night I was sleepless due to a nightmare. I was feeling sleeping and as we resume our journey I begin to listen to my favorite songs. I was singing the songs which were playing on the playlists. I was listening and singing the songs continuously until and unless we reached Blue heaven for our lunch. As we were getting ready to get off the bus I found everyone had a very fun time during travel due to my voice and songs. They trolled me regarding my singing and request not to sings again I shook my head and move to the dining hall to had our lunch. I was at this restaurant after 3 years and during this period many changes can be seen like a coffee shop, CCTV, and expansion of latrine. We had given only 30 minutes to have our lunch. We were enjoying our lunch and while we were having our lunch I was sharing my last visit experience in this restaurant. At 11 am we resumed our journey to Pokhara, we decided to stay quiet and we'll be traveling by sleeping instead of interacting. As I get in my seat I just began to listen to my favorite playlist using headset staying quiet even I stopped singing songs in or order to get being trolled. I was recalling my last visit to Sikles and planning what we were going after reaching Pokhara. Our bus speed was getting higher than before due to which we reach Amar Singh, Pokhara than our expected time and even 10 minutes earlier than we calculated.

At 1:50 pm we get out of the bus where we were supposed to move ahead for Sikles and before getting off the bus I took pictures of teenage guys for memories. We called our jeep but it took hours to get us and during that excess, we begin to buy the required stuff for the trek. Waiting for hours finally we catch our jeep at 2:40 pm and quickly move for Kahu Khola. There we stay around 30 minutes where we got surprised that the owner of the jeep was performing various tasks first he was welding iron, second meat, and third loading potatoes. We were so amused to meet the hardworking person of this place and after packing all the things we resume our travel for Sikles. Like before we were traveling via Tangting the neighbor village of Sikles because the way for Sikles was being under construction we were traveling Tangting as a substitute way for Sikles.In my last, I used to walk from hydro but this time I am going to reach by jeep. I was searching the way where I used to walk in my last visit and I found the foot trails have been tuned to the gravel road. Traveling for hours we reached the bus park at 5:20 pm and where we register our name and have 10 minutes walk to Namaste hotel the busiest and popular hotel in Sikles. We reach there at 5:30 pm where Maila dai the owner of Namaste hotel was eagerly waiting for ur to welcome us. He was so happy to meet me after years along with my pals. We move to the dining hall for welcome tea and we begin to interact with Maila dai about the Kori Danda trek. I even begin to write about my daily experience while we were having tea in the dining hall and viewing my writing habits Maila dai shares his writing habits and experience about his traveling to Bhaktapur when he was in his early 20s of his age as we were from Bhaktapur so he loves to shares with us. Maila dai was getting busy to attend to other guests so we even get busy using the internet connection as Aashib was calling Sarju and other friends who missed the trek with us. We were having a very good time in Sikles and enjoying the noon. Kabin was feeling unwell due to continuous travel in bus and jeep. We found him feeling unwell and severe headaches so we left him in the room and headed for dinner.

While we were having one of the songs of Nepali movie was being played on TV Maila dai informed us that Haku Kale is my nephew but we were not convinced so he called and put phone sound on the speaker. As we heard his sound we just spoke to Saugat Malla thanking him for making Newari ascent as the main dialogue in his previous movie Loot. I informed Maila dai that many scenes were shot in the alley of Bhaktapur which was even near to our old houses and at present, the alley has been changed and we may not see the alleys like before of original form because most of the alleys have been destroyed in devastating earthquake which occurred on April 25, 2015, with a magnitude of 7.8 Richter scale. After completion of dinner even interact with Maila dai about tomorrow's program and others plan about Kori Danda trek. He just clears us regarding Kori Danda's trek and after being clear out at 9:30 pm we move to our allocated room for sleep.

This is how I ended up my first day of travel with fun, recalling old memories and interacting with the Maila dai, the most iconic person of Sikles and owner of Namaste hotel (9846222487).

Day 2 2020 Dec 25 Sikles-Hugu Goth

On the second day of the trek, Today we were hiking for Hugu Goth, the rest point for glacial lake Kapuchu e. I was sleepless due to my gastrointestinal problem and because of me even Ashib got disturbed for the whole night and I was feeling sorry for his inconvenience caused by me. At 2:30 AM I heard the noise of plastic being wrapped. I thought it was might be mice but I saw Kabin was having biscuits due to which I get disturbed but still managed to have sleep because of tiredness. At 6:30 AM we woke up to get ready for the morning hike to Sikles park or Rising Danda. While we were getting ready I saw even the next trek group were getting ready for the hike. Before moving we had our breakfast and at 8 AM we begin our morning hike escort by Maila dai. I was feeling so excited to visit the viewpoint after 3 years but Maila dai informed me that we were visiting a new place instead of the viewpoint. I was so surprised to and object to him, he replied that we'll be visiting Viewpoint when we will be moved for Hugu goth means it lies on the way while we hike for Hugu Goth. I was walking alone recalling my last visit to Sikles in 2017. Sikles park or Rising Danda was a recently developed park where one can view Annapurna ranges and Lamjung Himal which created instead of viewpoint.

We were feeling happy to be there and reaching up there we begin our photo sessions. We spent there almost 50 minutes and while we were snapping photos I saw one of the trekkers (Ramesh Khadka) was playing the flute. I approach him and request to play the tune of Tu Chale's song in his flute. He asked for the original music and as per his request I played the original music as well as the flute version but he couldn't catch the tune and informed me that he will play the tune in Kori Danda. After onwards we decided to descend to the hotel for our lunch and even to pack our bag for a further hike to Hugu Goth. We descended down with Maila dai, who informed me that Risav sir had called him and to send him pictures he requested me to have a selfie in his 360-degree camera. We even took our first ever group pic with him and then spending a few minutes on the premises of the tower we resume our descending to the hotel. Reaching the hotel we had our next group pictures with Maila dai for memories and he even posted on the Facebook page of his hotel.  At 10:30 AM we had our lunch before we moved to pack our bags for the hike to Hugu Goth. I was feeling excited to lead the trekkers because I was the only one who had visited the Sikles before and knew the way till Viewpoint then onwards I was even unknown about the way for Hugu Goth. As I expected Maila dai informed me to lead the trekkers by handover walkie-talkie. I found Aasib was much more excited than me to carry walkie talkie. We tested it for fun which adds joy to carry it. At 11:50 AM we begin our hike for Hugu Goth, Maila dai escorts us for few meters informing me about the way. He was feeling so relax in presence of me because he was sure that I can lead the trekkers to the right path. I have been interacting with Maila dai since I knew about the Kori Danda. I was much more aware of the way by viewing videos of Kori Danda posted by different trekkers on youtube. I was walking with Rajan along with Sriyaz members of another group. He was feeling so excited to walk with us due to our cool interaction with him. We were walking ahead in a motorable way sharing our previous trek and other stuff regarding traveling and trekking. After completion of the motorable way, we begin to walk in foot trails. I was waiting for the bridge so that we can know the exact way of Hugu Goth. Soon after the mini bridge arrived we were walking enjoying the moments and after crossing it we took right from the bridge for Hugu Goth. We begin to walk in narrow foot trails covers by dry grasses and bushes.

We reach the railing bar spot which reminds me of if we were in Kalinchowk but right at that moment we were walking on grassy foot trails instead of dry foot trails as in Kalinchowk for Hugu Goth. We ascended uphills and descending downhills which was making us exhausted and thirsty. At one point while I was resting alone I hear the music of titanic which reminds me of something which I was missing and getting more wistful. I was alone and had to walk ahead to meet the rest of the pals where the music of titanic was still playing on. I was feeling so tired that I was willing to have more rest and I saw Aashib was waiting for me playing his favorite song Ennodu Nee Irundhaal (Tum Todo Na of Tamil version song). As I approach him I requested him to play my favorite one too. He plays the songs which I was eagerly waiting for it and listening to the song I begin to walk behind him to enjoy the song and side by side he was calling Maila dai to informed us about us. Before that Aashib snapped my pics for memories with the signboard of Kapuche Lake. It took us around one hour 50 minutes to reach Edi Bridge from Mini bridge we were waiting for this bridge from where we can view Edi waterfalls this was our most awaited place of this day. We spend only a few minutes taking our snap only and move ahead to save time.

We meet up with a guide from Labin hotel and then we begin to walk with him. Aashib and guide walk so quickly that gap between us was around 1 hour which shows that we were walking at slow speed. We 4 were walking together to escort each other and at mid of the jungle suddenly Anish gets back being scared thinking that whisper might be of a bear. We had a very huge laugh over him because he got scared by the troops of monkey which was jumping from one tree to another. Then after Kabin and Anish walk begins to walk quicker than us and the gap between us was only one uphill. There I heard the voice of girls thinking that Anish might mimicry of girl's voice but we got surprised to meet the real girls and I saw they were descending hurriedly for not to interact with us because they already knew that we were walking for Kori Danda which makes them jealous. Along with Rajan, we had very funny moments they were the same girls who informed us Maila dai, and few meters from us Anish and Kabin were trolling us regarding girl's acts towards us. We were still ascending uphills and after one hour 50 minutes, we met Aashib along with other teenage trekkers. Kabin was feeling excited that they were having what he was willing for. He just cleared his thirst which he was eagerly waiting for it but we were having too much fun that we just had to control our laugh viewing his anxiety. Then onwards we begin to walk in the group as we were walking in dense forest and it was getting dusk even the foot trails were getting tougher than before due to which we had to escort each for surpassing the way. It took us approx 5 hours to reach Hugu Goth from Sikles which was ours as per our expected time. Reaching the hotel of the tent we straight move to the kitchen to get warm and we begin to shares each other's experiences of today's hike. I saw the Kumari sister (owner of the hotel ) which was familiar to me but I knew she had forgotten me. I tried to remind her but she couldn't so we changed our topic and begin to watch her cooking skills.

I was reminding her of the chicken stock which I had had on my last visit to Sikles which so delicious that I had not forgotten the taste and wished to have it again. After staying there for around one hour and thirty minutes we had our dinner. She informed us to have heavy dinner because we may not get as like same dinner/lunch in Nohta and Kori Danda. We were so shocked to hear it so we had a heavy dinner than in Sikles. After dinner, we move to enjoy the campfire because today was Christmas and I saw every trekker was enjoying the moments as per their desire and will. There we met teenagers from Pokhara who were the second group for the Kori Danda trek. There I begin to write about my daily experience which continues for one hour and 3o minutes they were so surprised to view me and request me to include them in my experiences too. I informed them that they will be included from the next day as we were walking together till we didn't reach Pokhara. After completion of writing, I moved to my tent for sleep which going to be a nice experience in a tent to sleep in a tent during the trek.

    Walking for whole days crossing uphills/downhills and meeting new trekkers is how  I ended the second day of the trek.

Day 3 2020 Dec 26 Hugu Goth-Kapuche Lake- Notha

On the third day of the trek, Today we were going to hike for the lowest glacial lake in Nepal i.e. Kapuche lake and Notha the rest point for Kori Danda - the midpoint of Nepal. We woke up with the high pitch noise of Pokhara guys and we felt like they were having a confrontation between themself. With disturb, we had to wake up at 6:30 AM where the hotel premises was crowd less than last night. After waking up we just get ready to hike for Kapuche lake. Kumari's sister urges us to have breakfast as soon as possible to move to Kapuche lake. We had a very light breakfast and at 7:30 AM we resume our hike which was 30 minutes behind our expected departure time. I was walking with Ashib along playing music via BlueTooth connecting with his boom box. We were ahead of 2 members of Pokhara guys and they were even walking so quick that I felt difficult to cope with them. Even Aashib's walking speed was so quick that I had to run to catch him for connection to Bluetooth. Walking 25 minutes from Hugu Goth we reached landslide areas which remind me to trek to Langtang (from hotel Lama to Thansyaap). We were ascending uphills and uphills listening to my all-time favorite songs whenever I listen to these songs I usually rejuvenated myself to feel fresh and good. We were playing the songs continuously which increases our speed. At one point, Ashib saw the trekker who was familiar to him. We approach him and after knowing each other they felt so happy to meet each other unexpectedly and after that begins their chats. They were from Patan of Rotaract club. We only had 5 minutes to chat and move ahead to reach the lake before it gets a crowd. We speed up thinking that it's a long way to reach but we heard noises of Pokhara guys who had already reach there. In excitement, we were chirping like birds and we even get answers of chirping from Pokhara guys from another side of the hill. We confirmed that the lake is closer to us and at 9:50 AM we reach the lowest lake in Nepal. I was feeling mesmerized by a peaceful environment and with happiness, I just wave my hand in the air but it was unknown that Anish has snapped pictures which so cool that as if birds have been set free from the cage.

Reaching up the lake I just stay quiet for minutes to view the scene of the lake where the rest of my pals were getting busy snapping pictures. As time was passing numbers of trekkers begin to rises so before getting overcrowd we took our single and group pictures too as per demand and needs. We stayed there for almost one hour 50 minutes and again I begin to stay quiet listening to Resham Firiri-Traditional Nepali Folk Instrumental Music having corn, which I was eagerly waiting for this moment from the time I knew to this music from the video of Kapuche posted by Ghumante. After playing in Kapuche now onwards I was willing to play this song even in Kori Danda which will be fulfilled after we reaching over there (this music Resham Firiri usually depicts lifestyles and nature of Nepal which play a role to get renown in the world and can knows by everyone). This music just give me peace in my mind and I was enjoying the music deeply side by I was recalling and missing something and at the same moment, I heard the tune of Titanic getting played in a melodica by Ramesh on the other side of the lake which made me miss something badly due to which I felt anxious and urged pals to get down to the hotel. After almost 35 minutes I was adjourning from my pals because everyone was busy shooting vlogs, boat rides,s and photos on another side of the lake. As the crowd was getting higher we decided to move downhills because we even had to get ready to hike for Notha where we were going to stay overnight. As before I walking with Aashib playing music along with Kabin and two members of Pokhara guys. The foot trails were full downhills and down until and unless we reach Hugu Goth. At 10:15 AM we depart from the lake and it took us around one hour to reach the hotel from Kapuche lake. This time trail was quite easier than ascending to the lake due to which we were having the high speed to cross downhills and downhills. Like before I had to run to get a Bluetooth connection with a boombox carried by Aashib and whenever we had a long gap between us Bluetooth connection usually gets disconnect. Aashib knew that he had to wait for me for the connection of Bluetooth and it continues until and unless we reach the hotel. We were descending even recalling every trek we had together since 22nd September 2014 of ABC trek. At landslide areas, we had to walk steadily due to uneven foot trails over stones. After crossing the landslide areas like before we speed up to reach the hotel first but we found two members of Pokhara guys were already been there. At 11:12 AM we reach the hotel and at reaching the hotel everyone had a light bath and dry up their wet dresses caused by sweat. Everyone was chilling the warm sun heat where I was packing a bag for a further hike to Notha. As per Jetha dai yesterday he saw a huge avalanche and air blowing from the avalanche reaches his hotel premises containing with snow. We didn't get a chance to see an avalanche in the lake from where we had just returned for which we were feeling sorry for each other. I was preparing myself to walk ahead for Notha which was going to be a difficult walk than before. Today we had to walk around 5 hours uphill in the deciduous forest foot trails. Kumari dd called us to have our lunch so that we can move for Notha as soon as possible. We move to the kitchen to have lunch but it was feeling hard to complete my lunch due to the absence of chicken stock. Kumari dd knew that I was missing chicken stock but this time it was omelet lunch so she even feels sorry for me. It took me 20 minutes to complete my small bowl of lunch. After our lunch others, trekkers turned has arrived for their lunch meanwhile we 5 from Bhaktapur,4 from Pokhara, and 2 from Kathmandu were getting ready for a further walk to Notha. After we get ready for Notha we begin to wait for Maila dai who was even coming with us for Kori Danda and while we were waiting for him we saw the Avalanche from Hugu Goth which was our consolation view before we leave Hugu Goth. We were chilling our extra time ourselves where we meet Aashib friends they had their last conversation and I saw one of the girls of their group was getting busy chatting with one of the members of Pokhara guys.

I was feeling fun looking at their conversation styles as if they were not willing to leave each other there and after a conversation of 10 minutes Aashib friend’s forcibly took her to walk ahead because they even had to return to Sikles for getting back home. We waited for Maila dai for 2 hours, then he arrived with 2 trekkers who were even from Bhaktapur, Rajan was feeling familiar with them who belongs to his same village. Porter brothers get ready to move ahead and at 2:15 PM we begin our today hike to Notha. Walking for 5 minutes I had to return back to the hotel to bring the bottle which I had leftover there. I was walking alone in the Stinging nettle foot trails at a high pace to meet the rest of my pals who were ahead of me. I saw one of the porters was standing on the edge of the hill and I asked for the rest of the pals. He showed me the jammed of trekkers who were getting down from the vertical steep hill. I was shocked to view the way and the struggle to get down. I was interacting with the porter (Sujan) about a further foot trail. He answered me that we had to cross the river (water was flowing from Kapuche lake the origin of the Madi river ) and forest then as same as this we had to cross again another river and from there we had to walk up hills until we reached Notha. I was getting down slowly and slightly for safe landing and I saw Aashib and Anish were struggling to get down which add pressure on them because I was approaching them as quick as I can to reach the bank of the river. Getting down they just felt relax but the porter informed us that still, we had to walk a long way to reach Notha and we just shook our head moving ahead. We crossed the Madi river through a wooden bridge which was being shaky due to an overload of trekkers walking at the same time. Early in the morning, we were at the origin of this river but I didn't expect that we had to cross the same river again. Crossing the river we took uphills walking in the forest as like before tall bushes and Stinging nettle were in the foot trails. We were escorted by Kancha dai and as prior informed by the porter we heard the sound of another river.

The river was flowing in high density than the previous river and we crossed the river through wooden bridges then onward we begin our ascend in a deciduous forest. It was making me exhausted to ascend up hills and even making it hopeless to reach Notha. I was full of sweat but I didn't stop because among 17 trekkers I was walking alone being the last walker. Walking last mean more chance of misleading the way so I was walking quickly to be with the group. Luckily walking for 40 minutes I saw the pals were resting which was a great relief for me. I saw something unusual thing around us but it was unknown that it was the dung of a bear. Dung seemed like asphalt and Kancha dai informed that this is the place where bears usually arrive for excretion. Listening to this we just get scared and request him to work as soon as possible.We were having rest till Maila dai did not arrive and after his arrival, we resumed our walk.I was walking with Subodh along with Sriyaz, we 3 were representing each group who were walking behind, and among of 3 I was walking behind than them.While working Subodh was making me fun that he is a share marketing manager and I was sure that he might be pranking me so before he pranked me I asked him questions regarding shares. As expected he was unable to answer me so he stays quiet before I question him beyond his imaginations which makes us fun to laugh over him and he even promises that from onwards he will not have gossip fake with me but his gossips were never endings. Gradually we 3 of our walking speed begins to reduce due to which we were much more behind than other pals.The gap between other trekkers is getting more so I speed up my walk to meet the pals who were ahead of us and even I was sure that if I walked as same as the speed of  Sriyaz and Subodh I may not reach Notha on time before dusk due to this I speed up to adjourn from them.I was walking alone in the mid of the deciduous forest and at one point I was nearly going to mislead the way due to unclear foot trails which were covered with dried leaves.I was walking straight right instead of left and I was confused about where should go.I begin to search the foot the mark of trekkers but I was not able to found out due to dried leaves.I was searching for a way in the mid of the forest and even getting dusk I was being unable to found the right path. Luckily I heard the whistle from Anish and Kabin and felt that I was so close to them because the sound pitch was getting higher than before and I walked until I met them where they were waiting for me.After meeting up we decide to walk in the group because dark was getting up and we had to use torchlight to navigate the way to walk further.I was walking with Maila dai along with Anish, Kabin, Rajan, and Ramesh where we enjoy the experiences of Maila dai about Kori Danda and other stuff. We were having huge laughs knowing his experiences were surprising and unexpected too. We walked for 5 minutes and took a rest for 10 minutes to wait for Subodh and Sriyaz. Maila dai was making fun of them due to which we were getting huge laughs and making our walk more entertaining than Subodh gossips and jokes.We thought that they might be tired because they were taking a long time to reach the place where we were staying for more than 10 minutes and due to which begins to felt irritated with them. With irritation, we move further without waiting for them meanwhile Maila dai called the porter's brother for rescuing them.In the walkie-talkie, I heard the voice of Aashib this shows that he has already reached Notha and wants to know our conditions.I answered him informing me that we were walking in the group except for Subodh and Sriyaz. It took 10 minutes to reach Notha from the point where we had voice messages and we even met a porter who had descended to rescue the last walker of the group.At 7 PM we reach Notha I felt that the temperature has fallen down due to which I straight head to the kitchen to keep warm.Kancha dai was preparing dinner for us and we surprised to view that chicken curry was getting ready too. 3 of my pals joined us in the kitchen where Kancha dai first prepared tea for and another side curry was getting cooked for our dinner.I was feeling tired due to continuous ascending uphill for 5 hours and I was feeling cold even being in front of the fire.I adjourn from the kitchen where Subodh and Sriyaz arrived at the kitchen and we just trolled them which makes us a joke to have a laugh.They reach Notha at 7:22 PM after being rescued by the porter brothers. I moved to the tent for my warm clothes and laid down on the tent for rest.After 15 minutes Rajan entered the tent then we began to analyze today's walk experiences and other stuff to spend time with. I got called from Aashib for dinner and when I reach the kitchen I found it was full of trekkers so I waited for the next shift to have dinner. In the next shift, I was with Rajan and Pokhara guys, where I found lentils was far better than the previous day so I added up more cooked rice than Hugu Goth. Kancha dai was serving me alone after pals adjourn from the kitchen and he even added up me more chicken stock without request due to which I had heavy dinner. I felt so good after having a heavy dinner which even washed out my tiredness too so I felt that this was the best moment of this day. After dinner, everyone moves to a tent for sleep and I even joined them in a tent for sleep.This was my first experience (probably all of us too ) to sleep intent in the forest during trek which was inadequate space for us intent but due to the cold, we were feeling good to get warmed even in inadequacy.We just get sleep as I managed to get enter into the tent and this is how we ended up our third day of the trek which was tired making and strenuous uphill walk till now of this trek.

Day 4 2020 Dec 27 Notha-Toyakharka-Kori Danda

The fourth day of the trek, which was going to be the most important one because today we were going to reach our destination Kori Danda-the midpoint of Nepal lies at an altitude of 3800 m from sea level.Yesterday we had very discomfort sleep due to the inadequacy of space in a  tent.For the first time we had slept in a single tent in a trek and this was our first ever camping trek too and in our previous trek, we usually to have an overnight in a hotel too. We woke up at 6:00 AM along with the Pokhara guys but none of us were ready to wake up due to cold and insufficient sleep but forcibly we woke at 6:30 AM where everyone got off from the tent to view the morning scene of mountains. I was wishing for an avalanche because we were not having good views of Avalanche since we had a visit over here even in Kapuche lake where the chance was high than in other places. Last time we had a view of avalanche from Hugu Goth but it was not satisfactory due to blowing avalanche from the corner of the mountains.Maila dai called the rest of my pals for breakfast where I was with Kancha dai in the kitchen and I even adjourn from him to have breakfast with pals.Maila dai was vlogging our moments and we chilling morning sunlight with breakfast viewing the shining mountains.After breakfast, we pack our bags to move ahead to our final destination Kori Danda.I saw everyone was enjoying the moments by clicking pictures and enjoying the music with the morning bonfire.I begin to write my remaining daily experiences along with Santos and he requested to play my favorite songs and music with his boombox. It felt so advantageous to play my favorite music which adds joy while I was writing my daily experiences and we even share our experience enjoying the Resham Firiri instrumental music. At 9 AM we had our lunch which was taste was lighter than the last dinner and while we were enjoying the lunch we got a chance to view the Avalanche which makes us rejuvenate and new experiences in our trek. We just created the slogan “Maila dai used to speak To view avalanche having lunch where one should visit and we answered with Nooooooooootha Nooooooooootha ”. Anish manages to shoot the video featuring us which was too funnier to see our chilling moments while having lunch and after completion of lunch we just get ready to move ahead and before we depart we took last pictures for memories because we were to reach Sikles via the next route after our descent from Kori Danda. As per time at 10 AM we depart from Notha - Toya Kharka for our last rest point before we reach Kori.As same as before the foot trails were uphill and uphill which usually slow down my pace as result I used to be the last walker even walking a few minutes ahead of the rest of the pals.The trails remind me of Panch Pokhari which seems like it due to dried trees and stone foot trails (Chimti-Noshyampati). I was walking alone in the Rhododendron forest and due to exhaustion, I was walking slowly and slightly instead of stopping. I was walking with Sriyaz and Subodh, we were the last walker representing each group and I was sure that if I begin to walk at their same speed I may even have to adjourn from the pals who were just a few meters from us.I was walking alone after adjourning from Sriyaz-Subodh and frequently I hear the Avalanche being fallen down from the mountains, which makes me motivated to walk quickly with the hope to view it.At 12:30 PM we reach Toyo Kharka, where we can have the mobile network and I saw everyone was getting busy to call their near and dear ones. I even tried to call but my phone was getting a mobile signal so I took Aashib mobile to call but my call was not receiving so I decided to walk ahead while others were chilling and enjoying the mobile network. Like before I was walking with Ashib playing songs in his boom box but walking only for 5 minutes I had to disconnect with boombox due to exhaustion and slow pace.I was walking alone in dried deciduous forest thinking and missing something stuff and meanwhile, at exactly 1 PM huge avalanche burst out at Kapuche lakeside.Today at this moment whoever was at Kapuche lake might have view the stunning view of the avalanche and I was feeling so jealous because I hadn't had a satisfactory view of it due to being in the forest. After viewing the avalanche I moved forward to meet the pals who were waiting for me.They were chilling in the warm sun where I was sweating and sweating due to which I had to move shaded bushes for being cool. I begin to walk in a group after 2 hours of walk and we even walking in the group so that we may not mislead the way.Walking 30 minutes from Toyo Kharka we reach plain pasture land where we had rest for 10 minutes thinking that we were almost at our destination.The foot trails and surroundings were seeing like Mardi trek (Low camp to Shiding) due to which we were recalling our Mardi trek which was trekked in 2017.After the arrival of Maila dai, we even walk ahead where I begin my interaction with Maila dai like the before yesterday where he shares his experiences and struggles.Yesterday I had a very funnier interaction with him but today I was having a very serious interaction due to which I was even getting serious in his describe kinds of stuff.He informed me that he was planning to make his own biopic documentary within 2 years before he can get retired from this business. He was being serious towards his dream project while he was interacting with me (to make a standard hotel in Hugu Goth, Notha, and even in Kori Danda too).While we were walking suddenly he urged me to pose at the signboard of way to Kori and even whenever good arrives he usually request me to stay at the point to snapped the pictures with a view.

I was feeling timid that I had to adjourn from him but due to my slow pace, he usually caught me to take the pictures. He even snapped of Ashib while he was posing at the top of the stone. We were so close to our destination and at one point Maila dai stayed quiet and stared at the side of the mountain along with the hope of an avalanche. As he just spoke out suddenly the avalanche burst out and I even got a chance to shoot the falling avalanche. This was my first clear view of an avalanche than other's day view which makes me content and then we move ahead slowly and slightly where our interaction was still on. At 3 PM we reach our final destination “Kori Danda” while I was at the top I saw everyone was being busy collecting firewood for a campfire. I even joined them to collect the firewood which was quite an interesting task for us which continues for an hour which was making us joy to be part of this trek.

After collection of firewood Aashib, Pramik, and along I took a snap being shirtless to show our abs and physique. Pramik bodybuilder among us to support him we even show our family pack stomach instead of abs. At 4 PM Maila dai requests us to set the tent we felt so excited to set the tent. We were wishing to set the tent and we fulfilled over here to make a time-lapse video. I was feeling the real taste of trek has just begun because today we were going to spend our night in the open sky in a tent set by us before we spent the night in a hotel room or in a tent covered by plastic. This was our first ever camping trek along with carrying porters wherein our past trek we used to trek in our assumption and stayed in available hotels. This trek is so special to us because we had reached over here in the initial stage (before it was promoted or known by mass).Except for Pokhara guys none of the others were known about this place to whom we have met till Hugu Goth where Kathmandu guys Ramesh along with Sriyaz decided to join us from Sikles when they knew that we were going for Kori Danda making as the main destination instead of Kapuche lake. After setting the tent we listen to the song called Mountain High staying quiet until the song completed. I felt so peaceful in mind while listening to this song and we even remember the Mardi trek where we listen to this song when we begin to descend from Mardi base camp to high camp.

After completion of songs except me, all of the trekkers move for the Kori Danda viewpoint where I head to the kitchen for warmth and resume my remaining daily experiences till now. I was enjoying the surrounding viewing mountains having tea along with interactions with Kancha dai who was preparing the last dinner for us. I was writing about my experiences listening to Resham Firiri-Traditional Nepali Folk Instrumental Music which I have pre-plan to hear this song in Kori danda after reaching up here. I saw Kancha dai was making tik-tok and even video calling with his friend. I  was shocked and was unsure whether we might get a mobile network over here. He approaches me to inform me that we can get a mobile network at a particular point of hills. Hurriedly I move to search the mobile network and as I get the network I call at home informing our conditions and further plan. I even post a status on social media to inform friends that we have reached the destination then onwards I just get busy to snapped the sunset video and mountains which were being golden due to rays of the sun. After that, I get back to the kitchen to resume my writing which was near to finished.

Kancha dai scream with excitement informing me to view the sky which seems like it has been painted. The view was so artistic that we were compelled to shoot and also became our unforgettable moments of the day. Soon after rest of the pals returned to the kitchen for getting warmed and even for dinner too. I found dinner was light lighter than morning lunch due to which I wasn't enjoying the dinner. I was eagerly waiting to reach Sikles where Kumari dd will be preparing heavy chicken stock for us. She informed me that she will at Sikles on Thursday, the day we will be even reaching Sikles to end our trek. Except for me, everyone was enjoying the dinner and forcibly I had my dinner recalling the agony and dedication of porter's brothers for us. After completion of dinner, Pokhara guys adjourn from the kitchen to their tent for sleep and even move to our respective tent for sleep. We were spending our last night of trek in the tent for the first time in the open sky and we were confirmed that night temperature is going to be minus degrees as per the weather forecast assumption. We were getting busy to protect ourselves to get rid out of the cold at night temperature so that we may not have discomfort sleep. For the first time in trekking, I was charging my mobile in the power bank wherein other treks usually never charge in a power bank due to unavailability of it. This time I carried a power bank of Sajan to get mobile charge all time to not to miss the moments. I kept the power bank charging mobile above my head and get ready to sleep. We had a very funny conversation before we were trying to sleep and continuous laugh makes us hype that we decided to stay quiet for the sake of peace and rest. Forcibly I was closing my eyes and I was sure that none of us would be able to sleep due to the cold and this was our first experience to sleep at an altitude 3800 m from sea level in an open sky which was being quite tough for us.

This is how I ended my fourth day of the trek where we reached our final destination Kori Danda in a safe manner and gained new experiences in a trek which will be memorable moments in trek life forever.

Day 5 2020 Dec 28 Kori-Sikles 

 This was the fifth day of our trek, today we were going to trek to Sikles to end our trek. Last night was too cold that none of us were able to have good sleep because this was our first ever experience to sleep in a tent in the open sky the temperature was approx minus 12 degrees celsius. I even was not having good sleep but I managed to surpass the night by closing my eyes no matter how it makes us difficult to sleep. Aashib was frequently waking up informing us about that time. I heard his last informing time was 4 AM then I felt that it's going to get sunrise so I get off from the tent and surprising I didn't found dew which I was expecting for it. I was inspecting the surroundings and a few moments later I returned to the tent where the rest of the guys were getting ready to get out of the tent. At 5 AM every trekker gets out of the tent but the temperature was too freezing that we had to go to the open kitchen for fire. I saw the Porter brothers were struggling to burn the fire by covering the oven from a blanket but due to wet firewood, it was making them hard to fire the firewood. I hurriedly move to the tent to take the newspaper knowing for this reason to burnt the fire. They felt so relieved to get a newspaper which they weren't expecting it. They burnt the newspaper which makes easy burnt and we begin to warm ourselves at a fire.

Kancha dai was preparing tea for us and side by side he was preparing the last meal for us. We stayed there for about 1hr and then we decided to move for the viewpoint but like before I was not in the mood to visit over there. I was happy to be here which was a pending trek since lockdown begins and finally, we reached over here after the end of lockdown. Pals forcibly take me to the viewpoint for a photoshoot and before us, Rajan and Ramesh were moving to climb hills far from the viewpoint for a better view. Walking for 20 minutes we reached the viewpoint, I was feeling too cold that I was not in the mood to do anything and just wishing to stay in the kitchen for warming myself. We begin our photo session and like in others we take off our clothes for continuing our legacy. The blowing wind was so cold that we were feeling so harsh to face the cold so we hurriedly to take the pictures to wear our clothes. It was so funny moments that we were even unable to wear the clothes due to freezing hands. We were struggling to wear it and even Anish and Kabin could not help us due to cold hands. We somehow manage to wear the clothes then we descend to a real viewpoint where the signs board of Kori was there. I was moving ahead where the rest of us were following me. I was feeling so excited to take pictures over there because from there the view was so magnificent that I was feeling excited to have a photo session. The sky was clear and mountains were shining from the sunshine of the sun which motivate us to stay there being silent.

We played songs called mountain high which adds peace to our mind. We kept quiet until and unless the songs finish then we took our last pictures to get down to camp for our lunch. As per Maila dai, we will be descending to Sikles at 10 AM and he even informed us that we'll be walking 2 days walk in one day mean we were going to descend hills and hills till we didn't Sikles hydropower area and onwards uphills till Sikles. We had our meal which was more light lighter than yesterday night I found everyone was having their meal with joy and fun where I feeling hard to had it due to tasteless lentil than before but I had it taking a longer time than others.

Kabin knew that I don't like the taste and meal he was feeling pity for me and helpless to help me. After the completion of lunch, we packed our bag and get ready to descend and before that, we took our final group pic. I was interacting with Pokhara guys along with sharing the corn that I have brought to had it. At 10 AM we resume ur walk to Sikles. Aashib and I were walking late than others to chill out and enjoy the last scene of the mountains. Maila dai was snapping pictures at the signboard of the Kori of the remaining trekkers. I had already snapped my pictures in previous while ascending to Kori Danda. We took the left way from the signboard to descend and I found that I was at last among other trekkers so I speed up and walking for meters I meet the Anish who was even struggling to get down. I walk slowly but due to stepping on slippery grasses, I fell which gives agony in my left knee. Anish consoling me to walk slowly because we were descending hills and downhills. I was worried that due to downhills we may get injured if we slip or lost our balanced but luckily non of us were injured.

We took our first break at the plain ground after walking for one hour where we were cracking jokes and trolling each other which adds fun to our walk. Everyone was feeling thirst due to which we move ahead in search of water but it took us around 2 hrs to get water spout. Before that, we were having ice water along with other drinks. We were walking the rhododendron forest which reminds me of Panchpokhari foot trails which were similar to these foot trails. We were walking following the one who was leading us. Maila dai was walking, at last, to protect us from bear if it arrives. Kabin was having difficulty walking in his old shoes and while he was changing his shoe given by Aashib, Maila dai throw down the stones and due to the velocity of falling stones hill was shaking. We asked the reason for it and in answer, he told me that we were alerted to a bear if it was around us. Maila dai informed us that we were at a point where possible chance to meet bear so we hurried to get down as soon as possible. Leaving old shoes as signs for the next visit we resume our descend I was walking with Anish and Aashib where we found a signboard of the way to Notha which shows that it is a long way for Sikles and while we were walking Aashib asked Anish about the names of Dashavatar of Lord Vishnu. He was naming well but misplace in numbers 2,3, and 4 avatars. This question was familiar to him but unable to answer serially and so Aashib answered as per series of an avatar. Then we begin to talk about other stuff meanwhile Subodh begins his gossips which were full of joke and he even told us that he studying pilot in aviation school (the prior day he informed he was share marketing manager) and I was sure that it was fake gossip like previous days. I question him regarding aviation, but as expected he was unable to answer me and before I interrogate him he apologizes to me because this was the second time that I caught him for his fake gossips but like before his gossips were never endings (huge laugh burst out hahaha). Meanwhile, we mislead the way Maila dai informed us about taking the left way instead of the right way, but the rest of the pals had already descended downhill through the right way (it was also the way for ground walking in non-foot trail way). We were calling them to get back but none of us answered so we decided to get down thinking we might meet them at the ground and as expected we meet all of them at the ground. All of us were in thirst that we have been walking since took our first break and we have been walking for 2 hrs without water. Maila dai console us to keeping walking to get water as soon as possible. All of us were so exhausted that we feel irritated by each other that we were not interacting with each other which makes us walk solo. I was walking with Maila dai along with Anish where we get water in water tap we clear our thirst where rests of the pals were still searching water spout and later on they even manage to get water. I found everyone was cherished to get water after 3 hours of trek. We drink cold water which was a reward for walking for 3 hours without water. We stayed there for around 15 minutes for drinking water and tiffin breaks. Maila dai usually shoots video whenever we took a break but he doesn't inform us that he is shooting out video due to which every scene has been caught in his 360-degree camera. Then onwards I move ahead than others pals because I was having severe pain in my thigh due to constant descending downhills and even overload bag gives pressure in the thigh and as result, irresistible pain in thigh due to which I had to walk in very slow speed. We keep walking until and unless we reach the place where we found local village styles home. There we rest for sound 5 minutes where we found a dog name KALE who was a friend of Maila dai. I took the pictures of the home and even urge Aashib to snap the home because it was so heart-touching that it gives us a feeling of real village lifestyle and settlement.

We move ahead for the powerhouse which was our last point of hills that we were descending since 10 AM (5hrs continuous downhills). I was feeling pain in my thigh due to which it was making me difficult to control my body. I was escorted by Kabin till power where the rest of my pals were having rest but I move ahead so that I can manage to walk with them. We were at power as per our expected time before dusk. Aashib was vlogging the moments in the bridge but I was feeling worried that after crossing the bridge we had to climb up hills to reach Sikles which was just a headache to me. I was walking last along with Subodh he even was exhausted but walking was continuous at his own speed. We crossed the motorable road where the rest of the guys were trolling Subodh that jeep was coming soon. This motivates him to walk for some minutes but at one point I informed him that it's just a prank by Maila dai. Knowing this Subodh seat over there along with Sriyaz and I knew that if I joined them I even may lose my patience so I was moving until and unless where Maila dai was waiting for us with jeep before that I was snapping the view of next hills to divert the mind. I was so surprised to get a jeep but it was especially for Subodh and Sriyaz who were walking so slow in uphills. I felt so relieved to have a jeep because I was even having extreme pain in my thigh due to which I was being so slow and late to climb uphills. We waited for them for 10 minutes but they don't arrive so we begin our driving. Before moving I request Maila dai to snapped my pics with the jeep then I get into the jeep for moving ahead. It took us 10 minutes to reached the bus park and after getting down from the jeep we still had to walk a few meters to hotels. At the exact 5 PM, we reach the hotel which was our expected time to be there. Reaching the hotel I phoned at home informing that we reached the hotel and everything is fine then I got busy to use wifi. I was having extreme pain in my thigh so I decide to have a hot water break but at the same moments, the light was gone so I hang out with Maila dai and with other pals in the dining hall. At 6:30 PM Subodh arrive at the hotel full of anger being aggressive but we were having fun from his every act and aggression along with noodles and tea break. We were having a continuous laugh over Subodh because he missed the jeep where the rest of us enjoy it who was not expecting it. After 30 minutes of him, Kumari dd even arrived which adds extra joy because she told us that she will be at Sikles and even told us to prepared us heavy chicken stock dinner. She enters into the kitchen where we get busy uploading pic on social media I even uploaded my pic on social media but due to a weak internet connection, only a few pics were uploaded. A weak internet connection and even unofficial load-shedding making us irritated. I headed to the room to pack my bag and after packing the bag I begin to write the remaining daily experience. I was writing about my daily experiences listening to my favorite music and it goes on for 1 hr and 30 minutes which makes me forget about dinner. I was called by Aashib for dinner and still, I was busy writing and after completing the writing I move to the dining hall for dinner. As expected we had a very heavy chicken stocks dinner which makes me so happy than before and it even reduced my pain thigh. We were enjoying our dinner recalling dinner of Notha and Kori Danda which was so light and tasteless but we even had it knowing the agony of Porter brothers to carry all the required kinds of stuff for us. After the completion of dinner without any interaction, I move to the room because I hadn't had good sleep for three days due to which I adjourn from them to have sleep. At 10 PM I just laid down in the bed for sleep where the rest of the pals were enjoying their last night as per their desire.

     This is how I ended up my fifth day which was full of agony to descend downhills, unexpected jeep ride, and expected heavy chicken stock dinner. 

Day 6 2020 Dec 29 Sikles -Tangting-Pokhara 

The sixth day of the trek was the second last day of the overall trek. Today we were going to return to Pokhara. I had a very good sleep due to which I was feeling fresh since I woke up where the rest of the pals were still having sleep. After getting up I just get fresh and packs a sleeping bag in the trekking bag to check out. After packing I move to the garden where Maila dai was having conversations with porters and I even joined him. They were discussing a new trekking route name “Green Hilltop” he informed us that from there we can view most of the mountains of the Annapurna range. I was fascinated with the imagination and wished to trek over there but like this trek it's may like a camping trek. We had interaction for 30 minutes and then we got called from Sophia for breakfast. As getting into the dining hall I request Sophia for our last pictures in this dining hall.

She took our pictures without any objection and then we had our last breakfast at the hotel Namaste. We were enjoying our last breakfast along with a discussion regarding our today's further travel. After breakfast, we brought out our bag in the garden for departing but before that we move to settle our bills. In the dining hall, I found everyone was chilling in their way having a view of pictures in laptop snap by Maila dai. At 930 AM we settled our bill then we depart to the bus park where our jeep was waiting for us. I took a pic of the hotel for memory then move ahead to the bus park for the jeep.

Reaching the bus park I found Kancha dai (9806560667) driver of or jeep forget his keys so he returned to place where he left his keys. We waited for him for 10 minutes and after his return, we resume our travel to Pokhara. While moving to the welcome gate of Sikles we saw buffalo who was grazing suddenly got panic and begins to run ahead of us this was making us so fun that as if we running behind him in ordered to catch him. It was continuous until the buffalo didn't cross the way this incident just reminds me of the Kha-may fest of Bhaktapur which is conducted during the ninth day of Dashain festivals. We move to the welcome gate of Sikles where we had last snap with a friend and then we resume our travel to Pokhara via Tangting. Driving for 1 hr we had to stop at a point where one of the trucks stuck in the mud. We were feeling so bored that it may take a whole day if the truck couldn't move but the truck driver already informed for dozer which was on the way. We move to Tangting bakery where we had a light tiffin break.

From there one can view Sikles village along with Annapurna IV and Lamjung Himal which was far better than from Sikles. I was interacting with the owner of bakery Bhopal dai and he informed me about the new destination of Tangting name called Kharpu. He shows me the pictures and videos snapped from Kharpu's viewpoint as per him one can 12 mountains along with other ranges of mountains. I was feeling jealous that we were going to miss the place even being so close because it was just a 1-hour drive from Tangting. Bhopal dai console me to visit on my next trip I shook my head and move to view his tent designed by him. Viewing the tent reminds me of the concept of the Maila dai honeymoon tent so I urged him to name it a honeymoon tent. He was unknown about it that tent room design by him a suit for honeymoon couple. He was being so thankful for the idea and concept and informed us to promote it's as for only honeymoon couple tent. We stay there for around one hour and at 1 pm we begin our travel to Pokhara before leaving we took pictures with Bhopal dai (9804110768)for memories.

I was recalling my last trip to Sikles which far different than this trip. I was feeling sleepy and tried to sleep but being unable to due to the bumpy road. Pokhara guys were playing songs of Nepathya band which were nice but I was waiting for my turned to play my favorite list and waiting for 3o minutes I got a chance to play my all-time favorite south Indian song Poolane Kunukeyamantaa, Kancha dai knew the music and replied that it is a Tu Chale song ( Poolane Kunukeyamantaa  Telugu version of  Tu Chale) but as the song being its line Poolane Kunukeyamantaa he got shocked. Kancha dai react Omg it is madras songs we support his guess while music was playing on I found except me everyone felt boring and sleepy. I felt so much peace and joy while I played this song. As Aashib request me to play Chaiya Chaiya of the south version like before Kancha dai knew the music he sings Chaiya Chaiya but the song begins with Thaiya Thaiya, we had a very huge laugh playing south Indian songs. Playing only three songs I disconnected my Bluetooth with jeep and stayed quiet and hand over to Aashib for playing his playlist. Driving for an hour we reach Kahu hola where we meet the versatile person the owner of the jeep. We found him with different looks and different tasks which makes us so excited to see him. While we were at the bus park we found two of the ladies were vlogging the park that they were going for Sikles we trolled them chanting like, comment and shares while we move for Pokhara. At 3 PM we reach Amarsingh chowk of Pokhara and the time arrival was like the same we reach Pokhara from Bhaktapur. We settle our bill with the driver then we move to Prithvi Chowk by walking it took us 20 minutes to reach Prithvi Chowk.

While we were moving for Prithvi Chowk along with Kabin we move to a shoe shop to buy a new one but we found it too expensive than Bhaktapur but we purchase it due to the need for it we had to compromise the price. At 3:30 PM we reached Prithvi chowk waiting for the car for the hotel and eating for 10 minutes we meet our car. We were so surprised to have a brand new car that it even didn't have a number plate and haven't crossed 1000 km too. We thought that we were the first guests of this car and managing staying jammed in the car we move to the hotel. We were moving through alleys and bypass to get rid out of traffic police. Driving for 20 minutes we reach the hotel at 4:50 PM and reaching up hotel except me everyone moves for a room. I was enjoying the internet sitting at the reception counter where one of the Indian guests was the irritating owner for the discount but the owner denies him. I was having quite funny moments looking at Indian guest and owner act which was quite similar to act like in movies. Staying there for about 30 minutes I moved for room and unintentionally I opened the door of the bathroom where I found Anish was having a bath. I was just shocked how one can bathe without locking the door but the truth is that none of the hotel bathrooms is lockable. I just complain to the hotel owner but his replied gestures just hype me. He told me that tomorrow we'll be fixing it instead of right now. I was just feeling wtf, I move to the room and stay quiet watching wrestling. To make me fresh we move to the lakeside for refreshment, we had to walk about 10 minutes to reach lakeside and reaching lakeside we stated in a nearby pub for sekuwa (barbecue meat) and grill fish.

Anish took our pictures for memories we were enjoying the afternoon but still, I was not having a fresh mind. Anish console me to forget about the door and he offered dinner for me that he vows in the Sikles. Clearing our bills we move for Hallan chowk to meet the Rotaract clubs friend of Aashib and Kabin. We were at lakeside where Kabin and Aashib adjourn from us to meet their friend. We remaining 5 were having so bore moments that we had to move ahead but before, moving to the Mantra Thakali hotel we had chat pat. We found the Pokhara crowd less for the first time which is not a good sign for the economy in the new year time. While they were having a chat pat I was being busy to phone at home and someone else. While I was calling I found 4 pieces of Rs 5 and I grabbed them before others grabbed them. Before moving I snapped the boat which was floating in lake for memories and then we moved for dinner in Mantra Thakali hotel on the way Anish show me hotel Hongkong and Singapore which he had described me in Sikles. It took us 20 minutes to reach Mantra Thakali hotel from the lakeside and reaching the hotel Anish order our dinner. I was so surprised to view the set of Thakali and this changed my mood I begin to smile and get fresh than before. I was missing Sajan because I usually used to have food in the group but this time I was having alone because 3 of them had already had their dinner due to which I had less than my capacity and interest. Thinking about Sajan realizing if he was here I don't know what heavy dinner we'll be having. I had a very delicious Thakali set which I was having after 3 years since I had it in 2017 during my intern period at the airport. I was feeling so happy and looking at my happiness Anish was feeling happier than me. After our dinner, we get to return to the out hotel but I was confused and I was frequently asking Sriyaz for a way to the hotel. Anish was feeling too anxious about the club but due to zero number of guests in the club he returned to join us and it was continuous until we reach the hotel. He visits the club that lies on the way but all of the clubs were guest less so he decided to return to the hotel. At 9:30 PM we reach the hotel room but we found Anish was still anxious so he returned to roam the club and adjourn from us. Rajan sleep as he laid on the bed where I waited for the three of them. I begin to write my remaining daily experience listening to my favorite list of songs and they returned at 1130 PM carrying juice and chips. Kabin and Ashib were trolling Anish's act as they saw him on the way to being anxious. I was having a huge laugh looking at his reaction which was quite funny and hilarious. They begin to had the food that they had brought to had it and while they begin to have the food they even played the song and to entertain, I dance them copying the dance step of Chalein Jaise Hawa. Aashib was making shooting my dance and as I knew he was shooting I stopped the dance and urged him to not shoot. He shook his head and Anish played the song of Dil Chata hai Aashib join me to dance copying epic dance waving hand along with the music of the song Woh Ladki hai Kahan. I think this was the epic moment for all 3 of us where Kabin begins to snore as he gets into bed after having juice. Entertain them for a few minutes I even laid in the bed for sleep then Anish begins to gossip about aliens and then we 3 of us had a debate over aliens for an hour. At 1 AM we decided to have slept but I was sleepless for the whole night because tomorrow we are going to return to our common home Bhaktapur. 

    This is how I ended my day sixth of the trek which was quite enjoyable and informative that we knew about the new destiny of Tangting i.e Kharpu Danda. We had slightly fun moments at Pokhara (the best part was dinner at Mantra Thkali hotel and dance in the hotel room).  

Day 7 2020 Dec 30 Pokhara-Bhaktapur 

This was the last day of our trek today we were returning to our common home Bhaktapur the city of devotees. Last night I was sleepless and I was writing my daily experiences for the whole night and at 5 AM I packed my bags due to disturbance everyone got woke up and get to check out from the hotel.

At 6:50 AM we depart from hotel-like before we managed to stay jammed in the car we move for Prithivi chowk where our bus was waiting for us. At 7:10AM we get on the bus and I was feeling severe pain in my thigh due to which I was feeling difficult to walk and move. As I sit on the bus I begin to recall my whole trek listening to my favorite list of songs. Everyone was feeling so tired and feeling sleepy so there were having a nap on the bus. We were traveling on the same bus from Tahalka to reach Bhaktapur on the same bus without any changes on the way. I joined with Aashib where we calculate our expenses and other kinds of stuff. We begin to summarize our whole trek along with other treks that we trekked together.

Personally, I found this trek route so mesmerizing and strenuous as it is a newly recognized trek route due to which the crowd was less than we expected. One had to ascend uphills to reach Kori Danda and vice versa to reach Sikles. In upcoming days it might be the most visiting domestic destinations of Nepal as Kalinchowk and Mardi Himal due to easy excess of transportation till Sikles and one single way to reach Kori Danda which is probably known for the midpoint Nepal and on the way, one can reach to the lowest glacial lake of Nepal ie. Kapuche Lake. This trek is our first-ever camping trek and most probably I think we might be the first group from Bhaktapur to reach Kori Danda and as per our wish, we reach there before it gets over the crowd of trekkers.

Before summing up I like to thank my pals Aashib, Anish, Kabin, and Rajan who commit to being part of this trek from the beginning to the end of this trek. Like to thank Maila dai and his team to make our trek easier along with thanks to Pokhara and Kathmandu guys to be part of the trek to complete this trek as a group. Lastly, I like to thanks RabiG and Sajan for their generous financial support and other required logistics support for this trek.

    In conclusion, we can say that Sikles-Kapuche Lake- Kori trek may be a heaven trek for nature lovers. It is additionally and especially the Gurung culture trek in Nepal where one can know about Gurung in Sikles which is one of the biggest Gurung villages in Nepal.
