  rock art  
  climbing pass a highly ornamental mani stone  
  
  
   
  climb again  
  deviating from the Dudh Koshi, the trail to Lukla climbs out of the valley floor gaining elevation  
  
  
   
  back at lukla  
  a familiar view... but with Karyolung and Kongde having less snow than when we first saw them  
  
  
   
  soldiers  
  still on high alert against the Maoist threat
