This Cache is situated on the highest point of the Gandem-Samye
trek : 5260m. You'd better be in good shape to get it.
When we went to Tibet we checked that there were very few
geocaches. Thus we decided to put one on this amazing 4-5 days
trek, all the time above 4000m and often above 5000m. The place is
great and is worth the hike !
When you are at the pass, you can find a huge amount of rocks with
prayer flags, and several other cairns.
Next to the big cairn with prayer flags are three others cairns in
the direction of south west.
The cache is inside the third one. (See pictures)
Small note on cache maintenance: There is a local
cache guardian. Name and contact info on file with
geocaching.com.
