On day 5, we started the trek
upwards from 3rd Caves Camp (3971m) to School Hut (4722m). This was a shorter distance
than the previous 2 days, but involved 751m of height gain. Distance = 4.9km. Cora was very weak but, thanks to concentrated ORS and sugar tablets, was able to make it to base camp. We rested a bit in the afternoon and again in the evening, knowing we would wake up at 11 p.m. to get ready to start our ascent at midnight.
