Manaslu Circuit Trek
David from San Francisco, Seeking a companion/s for 19 day Manaslu circuit with Tsum valley side trip. Agency is quoting $1850 all inclusive: guide, porter, permits, teahouse rooms, meals, private transport. Start date is Oct 20. I’m a veteran trekker or more particularly aging but I have had no problems with fitness during recent trips in the Caucuses and Accursed Mountains. I’m also a photographer so I tend to stop and start. I’m self entertaining so we don’t have to walk at same pace. Roads are being built in the region so this may be the last chance to view Tibetan culture before the onslaught of the material world…

Hi, David,
I am planning a trip to Tsum Valley as well at around the same time.
May I know if you are still looking for a partner and which trekking company are you travelling with?
Cheers!
