Day5: Nepal

We are still seeing the same hills as we keep going towards the Hinku valley. We lost a guy today; as we headed up a ridge towards the 4000m mark one of the guys started to get a severe cerebal oedema. This was quickly spotted by the trip leader, diamox and dexmethedrine were administered and we reversed tout suite down the mountain. Luckily the guy recovered as we descended but unfortunately his trip was over and he had to back track to Lukla and then back to the UK, damn shame.
