Dr Bigg's expertly made a map of the villages that we visited during the field work in Nepal. the distances between the villages are to scale (of course they are we are geographers dont you know!) although the lines representing mountains dont quite do the trek justice. Jhalbas is 200 metres above sea level and Jagadev is 1200 metres. Ok so its not the biggest climb in Nepal but its a fairly admirable effort for work purposes i think!
anyways, to make up for it we will be going upto 4610 metres next week in Langtang! - i hope anyway...
