Day 3

Written By Belinda Bauman

Day 3: 

Ouch. Another hard, cold night on the ground in a tent. The excitement may be waning a bit today. But we press on. The aim is to acclimatize as much as possible today. A slow walk up, up, up. Many of us may be experiencing altitude sickness issues starting today. The mental game starts now. 

Distance: 2.5 miles
Trekking time: 6-8 hours
Altitude: 4300 meters
Zone: Low Alpine/High Alpine

For those "walking with us," how are you getting your 2.5 miles in today? Are any of you experiencing fatigue? Tell us about it!
