Namaste friends, family and loved one,
We dropped another 3,000 feet today and we loved every bit of it. Warmer temperatures and easy hills made for a pleasant descent. We made good time as we were motivated by thoughts of hot showers and hot lattes. We even surprised a Himalayan Tar as he grazed the hill (pictured below).

All our best, Vern Tejas and the Klimbers
