End of trek celebration with all of our guides! Our cook’s helper guide injured himself with his giant machete on the first day and walked ten miles, bleeding, to the hospital so we were relieved to see him again. And would you believe that minutes after this photo was taken, as we pulled under the cover of the hotel carport, the clouds opened up and it started to pour? It seems that Dagala, the mountain goddess who reigns over the lakes, was taking care of us on the mountain. And we are forever grateful and acknowledge her on every hike.
