We trekked up another steep path above the air strip to reach this point. Chris and Santosh became my two personal guides as it turned out. You can see the village of Khumjung behind them in the background (between the tree on the left and Chris - we'd eventually be leaving trees behind as we trekked higher). Because Dawn and Matt trekked quickly, I usually lagged behind by 15 to 20 minutes. So either Chris or Santosh would always trek with me, assuring me that my pace was the "normal" one.
