Marzana and I signed up for a 9 day trek - it turned out that one person would be joining our trek one day late, so we ended up spending the first day in Rumtse. A bit bizarre to be camped next to the main road.. but other than a drive by procession of a famous Buddhist lama, it was pretty quiet. we hiked up the opposite hill, and got hailed on. Climate change is definitely affecting ladakh - apparently you used to be able to count on blue skies in July and August, and we had ridiculously variable weather - snow, hail, rain, sun.. often all in one day.
