Three Passes Trek Nepal Day 8: Chukhung — Island Peak Base Camp
<p>Over time, it seems I am getting used to the poor nights — multiple awakenings, headaches, difficulty falling back asleep, and a chilly nose. After such bad nights, I try to approach the day more comfortably and not stress myself out. Whether I am an hour faster or slower doesn’t matter to me here, fortunately. The sports watch is running, but only the weather influences my pace. Let’s see if I can take this calmness back home.</p>
<p>The night brought fresh snow, and I wake up in the freshly snow-covered Chukhung. Like in Namche Bazaar and Dingboche, I stay here for two nights as well. So, today marks another acclimatization day. I would like to go to the Island Peak Base Camp. Since it’s no longer snowing but still heavily overcast, I sit in the common room at 8:00 AM and start walking after having porridge for breakfast at 10:00 AM.</p>
