It was spectacular from start to finish.

I did the full Annapurna Circuit. Started in Besishahar, Nepal (about 2,500 ft). Went up and over the Throng La Pass (about 17,800 ft) and made it to Pokhara like 22 days later. Every day was breathtaking. And not just because of the lack of oxygen.

In about one month I'll be back at altitude again as I'm preparing to hike up Mt. Fuji (12,400 ft) in early July.

Hope I make it back alive!
