  1. The EBC circuit via Gokyo is a different trek than the classic out-and-back.

    129 km. Glacial lakes at 4,750 m. Gokyo Ri (5,357 m). Cho La Pass (5,420 m). Base Camp. Kala Patthar (5,545 m).

    The Cho La is the crux — glaciated pass, 5,420 m. Leave Dragnag by 4:30 AM. Crampons after snow. The descent is the technical part, not the ascent.

    Now walkable in TrailQuest. Full write-up: gettrail.quest/blog/ebc-circui
