The monsoon has been in full effect!
After way longer than expected in Samagaon, the team has started to move out and establish themselves in basecamp. Having done as many day hikes out of Samagaon as possible through hammering rain and mud, the members tagged basecamp the other day. While Adrian, Phurba, and Woody remained at that high point to begin setting up camp and drying out their down, the others turned around for an adventurous trek back down through rivers that had swelled to chest deep water. It took until the next day for everyone to arrive safely back in Samagaon.
