The weather had cleared and the north face was fairly visible, so I decided to take a walk towards the north face between the hills called Avalokiteshvara and Vajrapani. I crested the hill behind the guesthouse, and noticed a monk and two other people continuing to walk towards the north face. I followed them along the Kangjam Chu and crossed the snout of the glacier with Kailash looking fantastic. I continued on, cresting a small hill with a clear view of the Kangjam Glacier descending from the north face of Mount Kailash. The monk asked me to take their photos. Coming back only took 15 minutes.
