- **4:30 AM**: Woke up at High Camp (3,600m).
- **5:00 AM**: Started the climb before sunrise with a headlamp.
- **8:40 AM**: Reached Mardi Himal Base Camp West (4,500m).
The climb was challenging due to the high altitude and thin air, requiring small steps and frequent rests.
This was the highest point I could reach.
The sky was perfectly clear, with no clouds, offering an incredible view of Mt. Machhapuchhre (6,997m).
This was the highlight of the trek.
After enjoying the view, I descended back to High Camp and eventually Low Camp.
The weather shifted between sunny, rainy, and cloudy throughout the day, and I stayed the night at Low Camp.
