It's evening time for rest along a trekking trail, women at work, a tourist looks on, guides smile

In Nayathanti, Nepal, smoke drifts out from the roof of a house where food is probably being prepared for trekking tourists and their guides and porters. In the background, an elderly women washes pots and plates at the edge of the stone porch. A tourist with a backpack and two guides stand outside, posing for the camera.

Nayathanti is 8000 feet high from sea level and is cold at night. The wooden windows are closed to keep the house warm.
