We stopped at 7 P.M. for a final rest before the push to the top of the pass. Our altimeter read just over 12,000 ft. We pulled on thermal knit T-shirts under our kameez (shirts) and ate some roasted channa (chick peas) and drank some water. The top of the pass is 12,600 ft., but then you come down into a meadow which is 12,000 ft.
