more about yaks

I love yaks,
the yaks have all of history behind and before them
they are so fabulous and serene and regal
even thou they be beasts of burden
they just glide the mountains
with powerful grace and humility.

More walking up and down this afternoon
everest is unbelievable
khusum kungaru is my favorite
it is like a another world
the glacial sands are like diamonds
the air is relentless
the heavens are almost in reach

we are at gorak shep
about to walk to EBC for the afternoon
we are all travelling mostly well
heads ache
tummies and minds grumble
but the fabulousness take care of us
as does our loyal and faith full retainer,
Namesh
  • the enthusiasm of exuberance
  • the wisdom of a mystic
  •  the strength of a bear

we are here overnight
it is beyond the wolrd up here
I would probably trade diamonds for a lettuce leaf at the moment
but dah bhat has subtle differences  depending on the elevation
and did you know that cleanliness is a western thing.....

I have trinkets and stories
I will try to up load a photo
Soon we go high into the mountains for about ten days with worse comms than here.
Until I descend
I will go tell the mountain some more

love
and
peace
