Rhongpuk Monastery


5 miles below Base Camp 1 the road comes to an end at Rhongpuk, the highest monastery in the world. Here we rented a room for the night, threw our gear down and hit the 5 mile trail to BC 1. We had high hopes for even a fleeting glimpse of the mountain we had come so far to see.... but an ominous storm front had other plans for us.
