Haven't been to such kinda places being a nepalese. I'm finding my own country more and more beautiful through your videos. Thanks mate and keep exploring. ;)
My country is just amazing though it is one of the world's poorest countries. Thanks for visiting our country. I have always wanted to be there. Maybe someday I will do it
You should not take seriously the "highest, biggest in the world" Nepalese frequently come up with without any base in reality. There are about 10 lakes at above 5000m in Khumbu alone, just look at any map. There are some lakes at over 6000m in the Andes. We went across from Khangsar to Thini in 2009 with one camp at the west end of the lake at over 5000m altitude. Interesting trek but not exactly safe with glacial steam crossings. Also the trails across the landslide section were only about 20 cm wide at the time, no handrails...
No, it was a bit of a walk down to the lake and after hiking up there, we didn't want to extend our hiking for the day. After we hiked back down to the lodge we got packed up, put our backpacks on and hiked back down the trail a ways. So we needed to save some energy for that. Amazing views indeed though.
hi Edilsa, thanks. Here's a playlist of videos from another trek we did recently in the Himalayas, in which you get a good idea of the lodges we stay in, the food and other aspects of the trekking experience: ruclips.net/video/v2auZgfsoEg/видео.html I will also be posting more videos from this same trek, including one in which I show all of my expenses for the day, in particular the food. As for Instagram, I don't have an account yet but plan to create one sometime soon.
Getting your subscribers up gab I was one of the first 100s to sub always enjoy watching your videos man wish I could donate but I'm sure my views and likes help a little
Going over Thorung La pass at 17,769 feet was still pretty intense, but I'd acclimatized pretty well. I'm now back in Pokhara, my Himalayan adventures over for this visit I think, other than maybe a day hike from here before I leave.
Incredible 🙌🏼☺️ watched some of your videos and they were amazing! Why don't you visit Malaysia too? you've been there before but it was like 5 years ago
I will be posting another video soon showing the costs of everything. But basically it was $40 for the permits, plus whatever you spend on gear beforehand, and then it's about $15-30 a day for your daily expenses depending on the lodge, how high in elevation you are, etc. Prices for food go up as you get further away from civilization because porters have to carry it farther.
Gabriel Traveler Thank you for your reply, and found out that the Himalayan black bears are scattered across the Himalayas from Bhutan to Pakistan, and they are seasonally found at heights of anywhere from 5000 ft to up to 12000 ft. They are diurnal by nature, though the majority of them have become nocturnal in order to avoid humans. They often spend the day in caves or hollowed out trees. P.s., found your videos educational and enjoyable.
Amazing as always! Thankyou so much. I followed your Annapurna Circuit trek up until now. Massively informative as I never know I could come all the way upto Mangan via Jeep. I am planning my AC trek next week. One Question. What kind of shoes will be suitable for the adventure. Keep Rocking! :D
Thanks Sahil. Some kind of sturdy walking shoes or hiking boots. I wore shoes, but they were shoes for hiking with good soles with plenty of grip. Hiking boots are a good idea as well.
Not really actually, more like above the fog that settles in the valley. I remember when I was a kid in California, where I lived in the hills above town we would see the same thing looking down into the valley even though it was only a few thousand feet in elevation.
This is the finest video I've seen from you. It should be entered into a museum so it can be viewed by as many as possible. Look at Creators work awesome isn't it?

you are showcasing our country beautifully! We are all grateful :)
What month was it? Do tilicho basecamp open in winter(27-28dec)?
This was in May. I'm really not sure if the Tilicho Lake lodge would be open then.
Thank you Gabriel. I'm in your country and you are in mine. Missing home desperately!!!
Great movie Gabe! Incredible scenery! Breathtaking!! 👍👍
Cho La Pass is very challenging.
Most amazing place I've ever seen. How do you feel up there? Closer to the sky? Or like a god of olympus?
It's really incredible for sure, beyond description. Such a unique experience.
Great Videos Gabriel ! Very Helpful .. Thanks a lot ! A Lot !
wao........lost for words.....
Amazing views. Did you walk on the Lake?
No, it was a bit of a walk down to the lake and after hiking up there, we didn't want to extend our hiking for the day. After we hiked back down to the lodge we got packed up, put our backpacks on and hiked back down the trail a ways. So we needed to save some energy for that. Amazing views indeed though.
Wow so amazing!~! Where do you guys sleep? where do you eat? I bet it is quite cold in there!~ Do you instagram? you must have some amazing photos~

Cool man, thanks for hanging in there all this time.
What was the month you did trek here? I guess it was almost end of December cos the Lake was frozen.
No, this was in May, the lake hadn't thawed yet.
Good stuff
I knew that our country is a beautiful country but I didn't realize that our country is this much more beautiful..WoW.... loved it
+friend friend thanks for your suggestion and I will do that...
Are you pretty much acclimated to the high altitude by now or is breathing still difficult?
Going over Thorung La pass at 17,769 feet was still pretty intense, but I'd acclimatized pretty well. I'm now back in Pokhara, my Himalayan adventures over for this visit I think, other than maybe a day hike from here before I leave.
nice.
Epic Gabriel. Amazing views. I'm coming to Nepal in November. Thinking of doing Everest base camp with Tokyo lakes and cho la passes. Keep it up mate

Great adventure but I'll stick with the Marble Mountains, thank you.

Great footage of that amazing scenery. Glad you are sharing this with us. Happy travels Gabe!

Absolutely amazing video!
how much does it cost to do this trek?
I will be posting another video soon showing the costs of everything.

Why are there no bears living around trails of the Himalayas?
I actually talked to some locals on the trail at one point who said they had seen a bear just a few minutes before. But I think they're very rare.

No sight of the mythical Yeti yet??
Not yet, but I'll keep my eyes open.

Epic view!!
are we.above clouds ?
Not really actually, more like above the fog that settles in the valley. I remember when I was a kid in California, where I lived in the hills above town we would see the same thing looking down into the valley even though it was only a few thousand feet in elevation.
+Gabriel Traveler cool ...
I love watching videos of natures and specially of Nepal even though I don't travel .

Hi Gabriel,
How long does it take to get to the lake from the place you had slept just before reaching the lake?
Thanks for answering
I forget exactly, but I think it was 2-3 hours.
2-3 hrs... wow... it took me 5 hrs from the base camp to the top...
This is the finest video I've seen from you. It should be entered into a museum so it can be viewed by as many as possible. Look at Creators work awesome isn't it?
Great, glad you enjoyed. It's definitely one of my favorites that I've made.
We will be watching your trekking we watch all of your journeys and reading your books. Shalom to you. Would love to have you over some time.:)
Yishai Davidi
Thanks, shalom!
how many days does it takes to to cover all annapurna trek for general guys
It's hard to say exactly as it depends on how fast you hike and where you start and stop, but about 2-3 weeks normally.
thnx😊
