The Green Cathedral …

… with a scent of wild garlic pervading the air. The deciduous leaves are so translucent at this time of year at lower altitudes.

We did a very big walk today, but this was the best part of it by far as there were no distant views of mountains to see when we were in the forest. From Roche to a high spot in the forest was 1,055m of height gain and 15km there and back. Fridays are going to be the Nepalese training days for the three of us that are going in October. I hope we don’t wear out before we get there!
