Day-03 (7th Dec) Trek from Nangi to Mohare Danda
We left Nangi at 8:00AM and the trail seemed to go south initially skirting the mountain that we had to climb and then started climbing slowly till we reached and the turned sharply North at a Shed (which I saw marked as Hampal Jaljala on Google recently) where we rested for a few minutes and ate my packed breakfast of one Boiled Egg and Tibetan Bread.
The Shed where we ate our pack breakfast at 11:00AM (See: Hampal Jalala)
From here the trail turns North and climbs gradually along a Ridgeline for 2-3 Hours and reached finally at 2:30PM at the Mohara Danda Teahouse alt. 3300M. It is a nice Community built Lodge with a big Dining Hall cum Kitchen and a seperate Building housing multiple DBL guest rooms around a Central grassy quadrangle. Nice setup! The View of Snow Peaks of Dhaulagiri and Annapurna range was super awesome from here!
Mohare GH Rooms under Red Roof (L) ... and Mt. Dhaulagiri (R)

Perfect clear weather ... Mt Dhaulagiri at 3:30PM

After watching awesome sunset from front-lawn and taking lots of pictures had a Dal-Bhat dinner. Very fast Wi-Fi was available here. Went to sleep by 8:00PM.
Btw: Don't miss seeing 3 Videos (360deg Views) that I shot from Mohare in this Album on Flickr (see end of album): HERE.
