Bhutan Trek 2019 – Off to the mountains!

Hello Everyone,

Looks to be a beautiful day to begin our journey through the mountains of Bhutan! We are packed and ready and are heading now to where our trail begins this 10 day journey on half of the famous Snowman trek. Today we have a moderate hike gaining 1,500 ft of elevation and about 6 hours on the trail.

I’ll keep you posted as much as possible throughout this journey!

Thanks for following along!
