Day 09: Syabru -Cholangpati


01 May, 2007
After our morning as usual routine, we headed to Cholang Pati even though our itinerary was fixed for Sing Gompa. At the time of walking, a cad winds its way around our legs, meowing loudly, I immediately thought something wrong will be happen during the day! (In our Hinduism tradition, this is bad sign if cat crosses the ways while we starts walk). The path is steep, much steeper than other days, which we had walked. After walked up around two and half hour, crossing after villages and pasturelands, there is two way in the middle of jungle; first one is left which goes to Cholang Pati and next one is up which is to Sin Gompa (Chandan Bari).

Sing Gompa:

Sing Gompa is a village, which is famous for Yak Cheese. Here is cheese factory. It has Buddhist monastery, but no monks. Some people used to make their itinerary to go Sing Gompa but some makes directly go to Cholang Pati to observe the early morning sunrise view.
After our four hours continuously up walk, finally we arrived in Cholang Pati having gained 1384 meters elevation. We can see Langtang Lirung and Langtang II on the south side from Cholang Pati. We took lunch, rest and overnight stayed at Lirung View Hotel. Around the dinnertime, we found that Laura has headache problem. At last the said (the subject matter of bad signal of cat) came true, Laura felt headache more and we had to think for returning back if Laura’s condition will not improve tomorrow morning!
