  • The trek to Kongma La was indeed the most diverse trail on the EBC and Three Passes trek. Day 05 started from the village of Chukhung (4700 m) and we were able to cross the first pass named Kongma La (5540 m). You will be spending quite some time above 5000 meter on Day 05 so make sure that your body is properly acclimatized.
    .
    There are no water sources on the trail so make sure that you carry enough water with you. Lobuche (5000 m) has good number of accommodation options so need for pre-booking. The most important tip for the day when you would cross Kongma La will be to start as early as possible. Kongma la is at 5540 meter so the weather could switch sides at any point of time so better to pick a clear weather day and start as early as possible.

    Wonderful video and series Manav. Still remember the 200 m ascent section (at 4 min in your video) - struggled a lot carrying a 12 kg backpack (mostly camera equipments) and also had to wait out a sudden 2 hour whiteout due to strong winds.
    It's Tibetian Snowcocks I think (based on white ear coverts and chestnut tail). There are usually many in the chukung and Gokyo region. (Carry a 2.5 kg lens for birding🙂). Himalayan snowcocks also share the range but Tibetian more common here I think.

    Hi Creedaz, Love your videos, great work. Just 1 suggestion, I think whenever posting multiple videos of 1 adventure having sequence number in the title is very helpful. Eg da Kongma La | day 1 EBC and Three Passes . Anywhere in the title will help.

      You don't need a sleeping bag. There are lodges and they provide you with accommodation and food. They even give you an extra blanket if required.

    धन्यवाद भाइयों !!
    काफी helpful विडियो आपलोगों ने बनाया है,
    मुझे भी EBC with 3 pass जाने का सपना है वो भी काफी जल्द,
    मेरी उम्र 56 है physically मैं कुछ हद तक fit भी हूं और mentally भी मैं तैयार हूं... i know this Trek will be too much challenging & hard for me at this age पर ये दिल बोलता है तू ये कर,,,
    Just please suggest me क्या इस age में भी इस ट्रेक को पूरे spirit के साथ पूरा कर पाऊंगा ?? किस महीने में करना सही रहेगा ??
    अभी मैंने Goecha La Trek Summit किया है, मैंने ये देखा था अपने में, कि मुझे थकान नहीं होता था।

    Manav you r an inspiration❤. Had a query, “Between March-April and October weather wise which is a better month to go”. Especially would prefer a period where cold will be lesser?

    • @Creedaz
      @Creedaz  Před 5 měsíci +1

      October has clearer skies as compared to March - April. October is much colder than March - April but the days are pretty clear and hence hot. At night the teahouses are well equipped to keep one self warm.
      My suggestion: 15th October - 15th Novemver

    Great video! Is the trail from Chukhung to Kongma La Pass marked or is it tough to find the way in that section?

    • @Creedaz
      @Creedaz  Před rokem

      It is marked. Nothing much to worry about. But it is always better to learn how to navigate using an offline navigation application
