Trek to Thamsar..almost :)

The start was pretty normal, five of us plan and three make it.. Dont know why, but there was this slight bit of anticipation that this would happen. Meenu and me would have marched on any way as we were really itching to go,specially after our last attempt where we had to come back because of Eddie(our dog)..Novi (our friend) and her dog Chaos (dogs name) too were totally desperate for an outing i guess.. So yes, ours was a gang of three,three first timers and Chaos-the dog.Co-incidentlly the two friends who dropped out were the most expeienced/seasoned trekkers..This meant the entire plan, route, number of days etc had to be re looked at.. We started our discussion with a few route options. Considering  our experience,fitness and weather,we finalized a five night,six day short n slow trip to Thamsar pass n return from Bir via Billing.. From the time this route and date to go were decided, we had a days delay on account Novi's tent reaching Bir sent by a friend from uttrancha...
