Thilicho Base Camp - Thilicho Lake. Annapurna + Nar-Phu Day 11

Early climb (~5 AM) from Tilicho Base Camp to Tilicho Lake (4,919 m), beneath Tilicho Peak (7,134 m) and the high Annapurna ridge walls. The ascent crosses cold, stony terrain above the treeline. Behind us Manaslu (8163m), Kang Guru I, and Himlung (~7000m) kept rising in the distance.
After ~3:30 hours we reached Thilicho lake. The lake’s colour seemed to change depending on where we stood. At one point a small block of ice broke from the side walls and quietly disturbed the lake's otherwise calm surface. Tea, coffee and snacks available at the tea house - with warm hands and full bellies, we were able to enjoy the lake for about 1 hour.
10/10 would recommend the hime, weather and condition permitting.
