ACT Day 07 - Route to Kang La
Ominous Rainclouds
Around half way up to Kang La Pass (elevation : 5306 m), which was just over four kilometres into the day's trail and 4300 m above sea level, we descended into a small shoulder before ascending almost immediately after to a large stone marker that was next to a water refill point. Just beyond lay a grassy landing that overlooked the marvelous vista of the valley and so we stopped there for a while to admire the views. Behind us, dark and ominous rain clouds began to gather and shroud the trail that led to the pass. We had already made it half way and had ascended almost 700 metres so we were fairly satisfied, and so began to make our way back down to Ngawal (elevation : 3660 m) shortly after.
