We start early as today is a real highlight day of our trip. We will be crossing the difficult Mesokanta La pass. It's possible that we feel more exhausted today as we are ascending to above 5000m. We start from the lake beach making about 300 m climb through the loose scree to a cathedral guarded by the fluttering prayer flags, then comes long section of flat snowfield to cross to the far end of the lake known as Eastern Pass. Dhaulagiri appears for the first time ahead of us, peeking up quietly on the far horizon initially, though it soon comes to dominate the view. The path traverses upwards across, as Tilicho Lake appears again briefly between mountainsides behind us. which involves about half a mile of traversing a rocky gradient. A rock tower, a somewhat incompatible signpost to Jomsom marks the Mesokanto La itself. It’s renowned as one of the difficult passes in the Annapurnas because the far side is covered in ice & awfully steep.
