We won't be seeing any tourists for 6 days. The next days uphill we trek along the ridge which will finally bring us in front of Machhapuchhare and Annapurna south. Today we enter a beautiful forest of birch, rhododendrons, hemlock and pines. We camp in a small clearing far from the main trekking trails.
