I thought that the trip might be beyond my limits after the first day. The guides and porters helped me through . Staff were really flexible and understood that it is suppose to be a vacation for us. Purchased the extra porter in advance, extremly worth it. My husband and i ended up getting another porter part of the way through, so i didn\’t have to carry my day pack. Because of the weather, it made some of the rocks slippery. I ended up falling and hurting my knee. I was still able to complete the trek . I really with they had chairs with backs . It was a strain to dir on a small stool after a long day of hiking.
