You should too.

I'd love too. Unfortunately, yeshiva plus a seven month old means the extent of my travels is drooling over the incredible views in these pictures.

That's quite the altitude. How long did the climb take you?

Not very long, everything is already very high in this area.

I guess that makes sense then. When I trekked to Kala Patthar (5,644) It took us 10 days with all the acclimatizing we had to do...

To get used to the altitude it doesn't help to land higher.
You still need to go through the same process.
Going up to flights of stairs in the hotel felt like going up from floor 15 to 17.

Yeah I have experience with altitude...

I had a few friends who went to help the Shliach in Cusco. They told me that for the first few days he didn't let them lift a finger in the Chabad House. They felt really bad because after all they came to help but he told them it's not worth it for him. If they would help even with light things before they fully acclimatized they would be out of commission for the rest of their stay..
