I stopped into Eagle's Height Trekkers one afternoon to gather some information about local trekking opportunities. The owner went over the details of the two options of most interest to me, a two day trek to the snowline (Laka Got glacier) and a four day trek to the top of 4,300-meter
A day or two later, I heard a knock upon my door. Harold, a tall French man, was also traveling on his own and interested in the trek. I quickly got the sense that he'd make a good trekking partner for me, though it wasn't until later that I'd find out he had quite a bit of experience. We went back to the trekking office to confirm our interest. A different pair of English girls who had just returned from the snowline trek had positive things to say as well, especially about the amount and quality of food.
The next day, Harold and I confirmed our arrangements, and paid in full for a 4-day camping trek set to begin in less than 24 hours. I was excited to put all I had learned from

A 4-day trek, that sounds like a lot of walking. Have fun, can’t wait to read about it, take care :smile: :smile: .

Hi Giulio –
Thanks for checking out my blog, and linking to it from yours. With regard to the advertising, I try to find a middle ground between being able to earn some money from my efforts and maintaining a good reader experience on the site.

Hey,
I also attended a public teaching with the Dalai Lama in 2006, then used the servies of Eagles Height Trekkers to hike the Inderharra Pass. Trip of a lifetime.
Awesome Charlie! 3 years later, I still remember my time in McLeod Ganj fondly (aside from the scorpion encounter I had in my room right before the trek).
Hey Dave;
Yes, it was a trip of a lifetime. I went there hoping to get one good idea from the Dalai Lama teaching and not expected to change my life. But unbelievably, I got one good idea that changed my life. The trekking–Heaven.
Hello everyone.
I alongwith my cousin going for Inderhara trek on 24-27 Sep , 2014.
