Return

We left base camp on November 3 and took four, rather than six days to return to Sugapa. These long days were a little scary for me because I wanted to make it to our destination before dark, so I trekked with our cook, Joko. One day, Joko quickly scurried off the trail in front of me. I chased after him but couldn't find him. So I made my way back to a trail but it wasn't totally clear. It was maybe thirty minutes before I found Joko. I discovered later he was high on opium. We made it to camp in the dark, helped by the others holding up their headlamps.
