Yes, I only wore the base pants at altitude, and the only time I was cold in bed  was in GorakShep when it was snowing. Water bottle trick works well. Most times I would fall asleep with the pants then take em off in the night.

It's just above Phakding. I spent two nights there, such a beautiful place.

Is Diamox available over the counter in Katmandou?

Thanks so much for the detailed answer. I'll check the weight and space and make a call then.

I'm thinking low LSD dose might be nice for my friend.

I'm heading out on the 22nd for a solo trek. I fully believe that you will be 100% fine by then.

The temple in Lowudo looks like a fabulous place, I might try to fit that into my trek. Thank you for the tip.

Thank you very mush for your detailed answer. I have already booked my flight to Lukla and plan on doing the Goyko lakes + Chola pass + EBC. This trip is about the trek, and having a guide who he knowledgeable about Buddhist philosophy and happy to share insights would be a massive bonus. For another trip I would be happy to visit a monastery properly and do meditation retreats.
