Manaslu 01 01 Landcruiser Stopped By A Tree On The Road [5 of 47]

We left Kathmandu in the dark at 5:15 and drove past people walking, bicycling and even jogging. At 6am we crested the lip of the valley and left Kathmandu behind. We continued west along the paved Prithvi Highway passing the ubiquitous Tata trucks and buses. We left the highway at 7:30 and drove 17km on a paved road to Dhading Besi, turned left and followed the unpaved road up through the early morning clouds. A small traffic jam occurred when a large tree fell across the road and had to be cut by one of the local young men.
